They are all about 3 inches right now, so i figure I have at least another year before i have to move them. I whipped up a price from GC and they said 1079 for a 8'x2'x2' plus 120 delivery. I could get a 260 from a LFS for 1400 and feel good about supporting a LFS but then I am stuck with a 6 foot tank.
The story that made me not want to shop with them was at reef sanctuary, a guy ordered a 240 and it cam with flakes in the glass. He called GC and they told him he would have to drive it to them an hour and half away from his house. Now I do fault him for taking possession of the tank when he saw the flakes on the truck, and they did offer him a refund on delivery if he kept the tank.
I still feel that they should have offered to replace the tank at no cost to him, I mean we are not talking about a small light or something that you can ship for 20 bucks. I know that most things bought online make you pay for returns, the difference here is they are the manufacture the distributor, the everything. if it arrives messed up its their fault and they should do whats needed to fix the problem.
