yeah, i'm thinking of moving up to a 48x24x24 120 RR next spring too. it will probably take me all winter to slowly move stuff out of the old 75 and clean up the old rock and corals in it now. then move the old tank out to make way for the new.
When the time comes, I will check around local first. The new store, premium aquatics seems to have decent prices on similar tanks in stock, just not my size. I might see what he can get one for first before driving up north. maybe save a trip and tax.
TFP used to have spring and fall tent sales. but i didn't see a fall sale this year. The spring sale has always been their big whoop-dee-doo sale with all the vendor reps present. while they were remodleling and expanding the fish rooms, they had a lot of old stuff to sell. but now thats done, and they seem to have rolled back to just a big spring sale.
their dollar a gallon tank sale was just for plain standard size AGA or was it PERFECTO tanks like 55, 90 and 125. not the drilled or Reef Ready types.
