What brand of aquarium/fish tank is the most reliable/best buy?

[cokeallen2020]

I'm novice to the hobby, but I've been maintaining a 39 gallon Fish Only tank for about six months now for school. I've decided I want to embrace this hobby and buy myself a tank for a FOWLR set up. I've done a fair amount of research and will continue to do so, but one problem remains: what brand of tank should I buy?
So, I want some advice on what brand of tank I should by considering I'm still a beginner. I would like to hear from experienced folks on what brand they've had the best success with. What options should I consider? ⁉

I would say most name brand tanks are fine. Usually the only time I have seen threads about tanks is if they are custom made tanks. Just make sure you do not pick a cheaper reptile tank. The glass on these are thinner since they do not hold water.

Are you wanting to get a tank and add your own equipment or get one of the all in one tanks??

FWIW I bought mine used and have no idea what brand it is. The glass was good and the seams were good.

Aqueon/All-Glass, Marineland, Perfecto....any major brand will give you no problem.

Thank you! I was planning just to purchase the equipment separately from each other.
