It sounds like a good deal. Is it drilled with overflows? Do you have any pics? Bow front tanks are good tanks, just a bit tough to find a stand or hood for a good price if it doesn't already have one. Otherwise it sounds like you are off to a good start!

Welcome Frank,

Sounds like an interesting tank. Is this your first saltwater tank? You'll find lots of help to get things up and running quickly. Be sure to check out the Quick Reference thread at the top of the General Posts thread. It has lots of info for those getting started in the hobby.

There are lots of people here that want to see you succeed so don't be shy about posting questions. There are many hobbyists in the Ogden area. You might want to contact some of them and go see how their tanks are set up.
