What are your plans for them? Do you have an idea yet?
I have about 18,000 rounds of .223 I'm  looking to get rid of, 100 rd bags. 1-4 bags $40 ea, 5-9 bags $38 ea, 10 or more bags $35 ea. I can't put this in the for sale section, its not fish related. No shipping.

The acrylic needs some work.  One was tossed in the dumpster (smaller) and the other was laid on it's face on carpet.

The larger, I think I can clean up.  The smaller might have a good 12" scratch that will be hard to get out.

Planning on moving our 150 gallon Pheno / Albus to the smaller.
Moving my mixed tank to the larger.

The smaller is rectangular and 70x18x33.  Height may he off a little as I measured with the top on it.

The larger is a double bow tank.  Like a flattened U.  The front is 81".  18" deep and 43" tall.
