there are one or two 7ft on ebay, I did see a 9ft on ebay the other day, have you ever thought of making your own tank, i have cutting and assembly instructions if you want them?

Kev Try Warf Aquatics at nottingham (pinxton). They custom build tanks to any size you want (including cabinets/stands. Very good quality too.
They Custom built me my 3x3x3 foot 110gallon tank with solid wood cabinet for just under £500. I think thats prob as cheap as i could find it anywhere second hand, plus peace of mind (they garuntee against leaks for 10 yrs.

Ok. I thought you wanted a second hand one. Oasis Aquarium in Manchester will also make bit tanks on spec - and they will deliver throughout North West. I recommend them wholeheartedly, they made my 8 foot one and they are currently making some more for me. If you are interested drop me a pm and I will give you their contact details.

Hi Andy. I am based in Stretford. Oasis is near city centre, Salford side. I have only received excellent service of them time and time again - what can I say! Take into account I always want "strange" things too .. they are fantastic. Everybody there is extremely friendly and helpful but if you want something specific talk to Trevor or Eddie. You can call them on 0161-8325836 (9-6 every day except Wedensday). In fact, if you are in Manchester for the next 10 days go in and ask to see the zebras too, they are keeping 2 for me which I am taking to a friend in 2 weeks (I didn't put them in my tank as its a 1200 lit one and getting them out would be a problem

). Then you can see the size of the juveniles. Say to them I send you cause they won't show them to you otherwise

They are currently doing two tanks for me, one 700 lits (for the zebras) and one 1000 lits (for some of my other plecs).
Their stocks are fine - I never ever had a problem with their fish.
I currently have 15 zebs.

You park round the back of the shop. Looks a bit iffy from the outside but you'll not be disappointed!
