wow 4k for a 240.

I'm wondering if this thing's really made of transparent aluminum?

Yeah must be "special" glass, standard glass for that tank runs for $1200 here in Saskatoon which means it should be a few hundred cheaper in Calgary. And that's if you build it, a standard 230 runs for around a $1000 new and can sometimes even include the metal stand.

Seems to me like a nice deal suppose if its not disregard.

sounds like the guy overpaid, even the filter seems high. At least he's selling for a more reasonable price.

Yeah I agree I find nothing too unreasonable about the sale. I just found the initial sticker price to be a little outrageous.
