I would love to buy this off of you , but my tank upgrade to 90 gallons won't be happening till Thanksgiving break, due to school. So if its still available by then, I would love to take if off of your hands.

I'm going to ask my pops if it would be okay if I can hold the tank down in the garage and let you know. How bad are the scratches, and can they be fixed? I would like to see the tank first.
it's pretty scratched but this is how you do it
well first you have to see how deep they are if they are surface scratches then they can be removed with a rubbing compound called Jewllers rouge this is a fine white powder that you should be able to get from your local glass supplier, you mix it with a little water untill it is like a paste then you put it on the glass where the scratch is and you rub it in but doing it in a circular motion and you continue this over an area bigger than the scratch untill the scratch disapears, a word of caution!!! do not use your finger to rub it in as the rouge will remove your skin as well as the scratch use a stick of some sort to do this part, to find out if the scratch can be got rid of.

btw it's pretty easy to remove the scratches, it's already drilled for a overflow you can sand down the stand and repaint the metal stand, then get someone to do some wood skinning on the stand and make a canopy. then your set, seriously it's a pretty good deal for a scrap project.

There is a hole in the tank, you will need to get it plug if going to be used as sump.
