Another large Aquarium with lids (North City NR3)
Gifted
1y
- This is the last of my identical aquariums; not actually the one pictured, which has already gone, but the one below it in my picture. It is an all-glass (i.e. frameless) aquarium custom-built by Sovereign Aquaria (a top make then) nearly 50 years ago. The aquarium is 54" long, 12.5" high and 18" wide and has two closely fitting metal lids (currently with fluorescent lighting i.e. Grolux still fitted and working; I might consider including this). The aquarium was repaired at the front corners, which are watertight, about 15 years ago, but now one of the back corners has a slight drip if the aquarium is much over half-full. However, repairs are quick and easy with aquarium sealant and I'm including the necessary glass strips so both back corners can be done, after which the aquarium should have plenty more years' leak-free life in it. Alternatively, as it is, this one would suit reptiles, plants, gerbils, invertebrates or maybe turtles rather than fishes. There are polystyrene tiles to go under the aquarium to take up any unevenness in the surface upon which it will stand. Collection only, by arrangement.

Large aquarium with lids (North City NR3)

- This is an all-glass (i.e. frameless) aquarium made by Sovereign Aquaria (a top make then) nearly 50 years ago. It no longer reliably holds water, though can be filled about half-full, and one of the corner lid-supports is missing. The aquarium is 54" long, 12.5" high and 18" wide. The leak could be repaired (I repaired the aquarium below it in my photo about 15 years ago), but as it is, this one would probably suit reptiles, plants, gerbils or maybe turtles rather than fishes. There are polystyrene tiles to go under the aquarium to take up any unevenness in the surface upon which it will stand. The lids are aluminium and have fittings for fluorescent lighting e.g. Grolux. It could all do with a good clean! I am replacing all three of my identical aquariums so shall offer the other two in due course
