Is This A Good Tank For A Beginner

[andy130]

Hi. I wanna start a marine tank. Someones selling a second hand Juwel vision 260 for 120 notes. Its been used as a reef tank, original lights and lid but the filter has been replaced with an external canister filter (is this better?). Still need to read up an awful lot but is this a good deal? i assume i can start it cyclng as i continue to read? (also what other questions should i ask the seller?)

cheers

Normally external canister filters are better

Does it include the stand? You will nedd a good strong stand for the size - still seems a good price though, aslong as the tanks in good condition

I'm not 100% but be careful if its the acrylic one! They are apparently very easy to sratch - not had a problem with my 180 so far though
