Found a great website for glass tanks.

Prices seem really good.

That seems really good........wonder what the catch is, hmmmmm, let's find it

So the catch is you have to meet them at a reptile show to pick them up. I guess it would be worth it if you were already going to one of the shows.......oh wait, I am

The Catch:

This company is a much talked about entity in the world of high tech planted aquariums. Their prices are great and having a custom rimless tank is always good. Problem? Their customer service.... well it isn't really service. Their tanks have been known to burst, and their silicon jobs are sloppy sloppy sloppy. These two things aren't quite as much of a problem for reptile enthusiasts, because there is no water weight to burst the tank, so the prices are great for people on this forum. However, if you do have an issue with one of their tanks, don't expect much in the way of service. Hit up any planted tank forum and you'll see these same things spouted over and over about this company. Just what I know, take it as you will.

Well that explains why their site says, these are meant for reptiles and not to hold water. At least they are honest.

you're looking at the terrariums portion of the site. The tanks the planted tank owners gripe about are the custom rimless designs that ARE supposed to hold water.

Oh well, doesn't matter much to me I get my tanks through Petland..........a 265 gallon would be nice though, a girl can dream

I am actually pretty hardcore when it comes to being a fish hobbyist. This is base on my experience so that being said, I bought a fish tank from them which is my other super expensive hobby. The price from what I remember was great especially for acrylic tanks. I bought a 350 gal tank, with stand and the canopy from them and the quality to me seems good and its been 4 almost 5 years now and everything still in one peice (didnt need to re-seal the silicone etc etc) I had the tank ship through frieght though instead of pick up but its a massive tank and I dont think they can carry it around and move it around through shows/expo.

Best of Luck with your decision
