If anyone needs a tank from glass cages they will be passing/dropping off tanks in OKC next week. Just to let everyone know.

I actually need a new frag tank that isnt all scratched up. If you saw the state of the one i hvae, and how full it is......

I just ordered the 72-24-13 tall as a replacement. The old 100g will become a sump for the indoor ocean.

What exactly is the low lead glass? I just requested a quote from them to build my new tank, but not sure what the difference is in the glass. I'm hoping to get a 40w x 22d x 25t rimless tank. Also anyone know if thier overflows are good or should i drill and do the overflows myself?

 

[poke75]

the covers for the overflows are not very good. They did do a nice job on the overflow itself and the drilling. If you have them drill it, then be sure and get their bulkheads. They use the heavy duty ones. Very nice.

If you get the cover, ask them not to cut the grooves in the top and have someone with a router cut them for you.

Dustin and dugg if you don't mind me asking how much where the quote for the rimless tank?

 

[dugg]

I haven't got an answer yet. I will let you know when i do. I hope the rimless doesn't add too much, i don't want one of thier tanks with the wide glass rim.

 

[dugg]

Anybody have an explaination on the low iron glass?

 

[Travis L. Stevens]

Low Iron Glass (AKA Starfire) is supposed to have improved clarity.

 

[dugg]

What about strength and scratch resistance?

 

[Travis L. Stevens]

As far as I know, same as glass.

 

[dugg]

Thanks, not planning on paying extra just for clarity then. With my eyes, it's all blurry lol. Now if it was self cleaning they might have something.

 

[kpk]

I called them today to get the specs on the rimless tank. I got a quote for a 48x30x25 and he said it would be the same as the one listed at $440 because that one is standard and already made with 1/2" glass. So I guess the ones that are listed that are made with 1/2" glass will be the same price, but the ones that are made with less than 1/2" will be more than the listed price. Make sense?

 

[dugg]

Is that how they do the rimlesstanks, by using 1/2 inch glass? That is going to be one heavy tank after i fill it with cement lol.

GC will also be here early December.

Just a "heads up"
