Is there a market for the slate bottom stainless tanks?

Yyyyeah! I'd love to have one!

That's all we had until the all-glass ones hit the market. They're useless for saltwater, of course, but freshwater keepers can have a ball with them. I still have some myself which are some 40 years old, and I just kick myself in the head when I think of all the ones I broke over the years. ( to kick myself in the head I have to stand on a chair, of course )
Anyway, yeah, there is still a market for those tanks among those who enjoy their nostalgia value.
Trenton, eh? Rats. I'd love to get some.

I did find an old petshop in florida once which had been running for decades. It still used only those tanks, along with a bunch of other nifty antique stuff. It was really cool, like going back in time. You shoulda seen it.
