Mark V Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Aside from getting them used where can you get a good deal on a high quality tank? There does not seem to be a lot of online dealers for mid to large sized tanks. The only two that show up on forums is glass cages and fish tanks direct. I haven't heard much about these but I wanted to know where te group have gotten there tanks and stands from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Bio)³ Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 A lot of people order them from River city aquatics or Aqua dome. We do have one member who ordered his tank from planet aquariums. (They dont have a website) but they can be ordered in to river city for pick up. You have to email them to discuss anything but they apparently give GREAT bang for the buck, if you want to see the build thread with that tank look here: http://www.austinreefclub.com/topic/22992-creatures-in-a-black-lagoon-my-final-tank-upgrade/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Deep Sea Aquatics, http://www.deepseaaq....net/index.php/ If it's a glass tank, you'll have to order through a LFS. I build my own acrylic tanks if needed but there are companies online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard L Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Got my 225 from Dutch Aquarium Systems (DAS). I think they are in Waxahachie, TX. The biggest selling factor is the quality of their construction. Their silicon joints are the best I've seen - or I should say you can't see because they don't do that big corner bead that is impossible to keep clean.

Sascha D. Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I'm also looking for a tank and having trouble finding any dealers besides LFS. Any dealers out there deliver or do I have to call the movers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offroadodge Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 DSA or build a tank on your own, thats what i did. DSA is a nice tank and local to Texas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardx322 Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I would go through a lfs because they can get it in and if there is anything wrong with it they can send it back. If you have it shipped to your house its going to be a big hassel prob if there is an issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
