Ok , so sounds crazy but I am trying to identify a used tank I bought. It is a 180 gallon Eurobraced tank , I have attached threes photos . If anyone can tell by photos please let me know, I am just so curious. Thanks

Dang, looks like a really good find!! Hopefully you got an amazing price for it. Make sure to test the tank and check the seals :)
 
I want to say it's a Miracles Aquariums tank for a few reasons...

1 The plastic trim along the bottom
2 The way the overflow is cut out
3 It has the same reinforcement on the outside of the overflow box.
4 It appears to have the exact same acrylic weir they use as well..
5 The Eurobracing is on top of the outside glass instead of inside like most manufacturers do... Miracles is always on top from everything I've ever seen.
6 It also looks like it has the same Square corner reinforcements on the back panel as well.

The type of construction with the eurobrace is a an example of D.A.S manufacturing. No longer in business. Tenecor in MN made similar ( also no longer in business)
Was in the pet business for years, so you see many different components. . LOL

That was my guess , I sent Miracles photos but they said they can't tell me unless I have original owners name , which I dont lol
 
Do you know how old it is? That might rule out the manufacturers @vetteguy53081 mentioned above or other ones as well
Unfortunately I don't , the store owner was told Coast 2 Coast made it but when I emailed them they confirmed it isn't one of their tanks
 
Reviving old thread , to see if I can figure this out still
