anyone ever bought a tank from these folks? They have a 60g glass cube for $220, that I'm thinking of buying.

I had planned to buy replacement tank frame from them for a 55g, but ended up fixing the brace another way. They were pretty quick and helpful with the email responses, to the questions I had about the replacement frame. Someone in the fish club here, ordered a tank from them and was able to pick it up from them locally when they came by for a show in atlanta. So can probably save on shipping if they are going to any shows near your area, there is a link on their site showing their schedule.

They are usually pretty good. One thing about them, the price you see is usually for the tank only, you then have to get a stand and a canopy for them. Everyone in my reef club uses their 30gal long tanks for sumps, rather convenient.

shipping will be high, as korith said check their show schedule, maybe you can pick it up

You aren't just kidding shipping is high. More than the price of the tank. They also want the tank unpacked and inspected before signing off on the delivery. I can't think of one delivery man that would ever stand around and wait for unpackaging to be done before he can get on his way. You also need to have a crew there to unload for them.

It's a good site, tho. They also have the frames for fish tanks if someone should need a replacement.

they have a drop off point about 90 miles from me en route to a show, if I ever bought one of their tanks I'd go meet them

**geowashlaw** · 02-19-2009, 04:06 PM

they have a drop point about 12 - 15 miles from me ... would only be $102 to get the tank, stand and canopy delivered... Tank, stand, canopy and delivery would be $607.

yeah ... I told my wife that and she looked at me like I had four heads ... then said something about how I needed to keep looking on craigslist and quit being so impatient and someday I would find the tank I wanted on there and where did I think I was going to get $600 and that doesn't even include the filters and lights and fish, etc ... LOL
