Tank and Stand

[Peedub20]

Does anyone have suggestions as to where the cheapest place to get a 125 with built in overflow and stand would be. I'd rather not have to order it and have it shipped, but if that makes it dramatically cheaper I am not opposed.

Thanks

I actually recently went to every store in Omaha and asked for a quote on a 120, drilled, with a stand and sump. Everyone said they would call me the next day with a quote. One place never did call back. Another place called back a couple of days later but didn't include all the information I requested. The third place was like pulling teeth to get any information whatsoever and would not provide hard #'s (they said I would have to talk with the owner who was apparently not available for that entire week). The forth place, Paradise Cove, worked with me on every detail and designed out the entire project and gave me a quote that I could live with. By far the best choice and if I had to go through it again they would be the first and only one I called probably. If I were you, I would go straight to Paradise Cove and talk with Joe about what you want.

As far as used tanks... I have found that most of them are scratched or leak so unless I know the history of it I would buy new (obviously). I do have an extra 120 now that I could part with... if you don't mind some scratches of course. LOL

LANMan, what is your proposed set up? I am VERY interested in a 120 exactly like that. I've been waiting to upgrade my 55 for years to something huge, but it's probably more practical to get a 120 that I can have now.

I am on the same page with used tanks, tank sometimes cheapest part of the whole setup.

I can get them in special order...looking at $460 for the tank and lids, stand and canopy can range from $400-$4000...depends upon what kind of wood or how much detail.

Lights and all are also cheap to expensive.

Only downfall is I am in Sioux Falls,

Cannot wait for Pro to be there in august.

I sent you a pm, but it says your mailbox is full... Let me know when you clean it out and I will resend it.

I had no idea I've received that many pm's in my time here. Both inbound and outbound messages have been erased, please resend
