Cad 39g - Wtb

I am looking to get back into the hobby. Is anyone looking to sell a CAD39G? If not I am going to buy a new one. The best prices I have seen so far are on oceanreeflactions.com (not sure if they are a sponsor). Any help in my search is greatly appreciated.

Patrick

Those cads tanks are really nice. I haven't seen anyone in ORCA post any pics of having one. Post some pics when you get it setup.

Yeah they are the best looking nanos I have seen. I am debating on getting one now or waiting a few months. The site that I was looking at getting it from says they won't have the pro setup for a month or two. I can wait to spend all of that money I will definitely post the build when I begin.

Just out of curiosity have you looked at the Red Sea Max? I enjoy mine, though not perfect, convenient and serves its purpose well. I almost bought a cad setup, too, but this one was more readily available. I didn't want to wait ;p

Hi Chrisstie,

I am still considering the RSM. That is a very nice setup. I am going to ponder on this for a while before making my final decision. Could you post a few pics of yours? I would love to see it.

I haven't taken that many pictures of it since its only roughly a year old but I have a set on my flickr page here
http://flickr.com/photos/christie/se...7601083770914/

I did have a small issue that RSM has already replaced the fans for so the most recent shot has a 70W viper halide over it, which actually, I like the look of and would even put a 150W if i had it over it but I'll probably just repair the fan and replace the original hood. I'm doing SPS in my other tank so this is more for nano sized interesting things


Sorry this was taken with not my best camera and before I scraped everything down


When I get the chance to setup the tripod I might try to make a photoshoot of this tank. things have really started growing like crazy

Thanks for the post. Your tank looks good. I am leaning more and more towards the CAD 39G Pro. Tough decisions.

How about the Solana? Those seem pretty impressive to me...

Solana is another sweat tank. Man I never thought the decision would be this tough.

I like the look of the Solana but I'd be concerned about having a right and proper top so my critters couldn't accidentally go carpet surfing. At least its an easy shape to fit for a top
