Need to buy a new tank, the 450 is leaking and I can't seem to get it resealed. Looking to buy in the 96x36x30 range. I checked out Glasscages.com. Just wondered if there was anyplace else to check.

Thanks

Why would I want to get two 265s instead of one big tank? Kinda defeats the purpose.

I agree, but also twice the cost.

Buying acilic has a big advangae beacause of its weight... my 120 48x24x24 glass tank was hard to move with my dad(2 people) and I don't want to know how many peaople you will need for a tank that big... If you get a glass tank I would get a short tank so the glass is thiner and tank is lighter...
