For those who have given me advice, Thank you! I went and saw the tank and it was beautiful. The woman and her husband have kept really good care of it, but are moving to Michigan after having a baby 13 days ago. It was extremely clean and housed swordfish, guppies, mollies, platies, 6-8 neon tetras, a pleco, and 3-5 Cory cats. It also has abour 5-6 different plants that I could see. The filtration exceeded the amount needed for the tank and the woman, Emily who worked at Petsmart prior to having the baby, said that the filtration was setup so that I probably wouldn't have to wash out the canister cartridge for another 6-8 months. The two wooden pieces that were stated to be immovable, may or may not be. THe previous owner of the tank used J.B. Weld to adhere them to the bottom of the tank. However the middle piece has come loose over the past couple of years. I convinced my fiancee to just use this as an early Christmas and Birthday present and I would be extremely satisfied. After seeing the tank, she fell in love with the hobby herself. We put $50 down and we will be picking the tank up next weekend, when I return from a business trip! It is going to look so nice in our apartment. Now I just have to figure out where we are going to set it up at!?!?
