The oceanics don't come with all three sides starphire. There's a long thread going on in one of the forums discussing this. Tanks made up until a certain date where made with 3 sides Super Clear glass and after that point, only the front is Starphire. Granted a lot of people where told that, including myself. I even called Oceanic before I bought mine, and was told all 3 sides where starphire...
Just wanted to throw this out there so someone knows what there getting if there interested in one...

yes it is true, i have the 45 techand it is only front panel starphire. I bought right when they came out about a year ago.
<--- has a oceanic 4 sided starphire tank, even the overflow is starphire 
:smokin: but mine is custom built.
There used to be a company down in Ft. Lauderdale that made custom starphire tanks to your specs. I don't remember the name, perhaps doing a search might come up with it. There was a company in Canada that was doing custom starphire tanks as well. Im sure a search would come up with there name as well.

A guy in Miami built my 345. 96 x 30 x 30. Front is starfire with overflow box along the whole length and built like a tank. He's been making tanks for over 40 years. If I remember right it was around $2300. He's retired now and not sure if he'd be interested but I can contact him and ask. LMK.
I'm in Ormond and you're more than welcome to come down and have a look at mine if he decides he wants to do it and before you commit yourself.

You can try exotic aquariums. I think they are in Hollywood, Florida. They are building my tank and have a solid reputation.

You can never find info on oceanic though. I have the 45 Tech with starphire and it is extremely well put together. Only 45 gallons but 1/2" glass all around... Too bad their marketing is beyond bad! Mr. Crab is trying to point me in right direction so we'll see.
