Looking for a 6ft glass tank

[reev]

Anyone selling a 6 ft glass tank, 150-180G, in South Bay? I'm in the market for one. It needs to be in good condition as a DT. Not drilled is fine, I can drill it myself as long as it is not tempered glass.

No luck with a quote from Steve?

I was looking at their stock tanks. They don't really have 6 ft long tanks unless I go to 240+G. I was thinking to ask for a quote on a custom tank, then I have found brand new 180G, glass, 6 ft, at a store in SJ. The price is good, just that it comes with stand and sump which I don't need, I would have to resell those. So I said to look around more before going either with a custom tank or with this offer from SJ store.

BTW, Steve had some really sweet deals over Black Friday and he still has good deals in the "Deal of the day" section. But no 150-180G 6ft tanks, they prefer to build the 5 ft long ones. Can't blame them, If I would start from scratch on a new setup, I would also prefer the 5 ft x 2ft x 2ft

Deep tank is definitely nice but length is good for fish too. I have few fish they swim side to side but not going circle or back to front. I am in search for a 6ft too just because of that.

I think Robert at neptune will sell any tank off the stand. And usually has some 6 footers. He gets a lot of them from crystal dynamics. Either way you just have watch for those bubbles in the glass that CD is known for.

Thanks for the pointers. I was thinking to visit Neptune once things slow down at work around the holidays. I'm not familiar with the CD tanks. Thanks for warning me about the bubbles. I will search on them to get more info.
