The glasscages 180 cost like 800 dollars, if it was cheaper than a tank you can get at your LFS like a marineland i would consider it but in all honesty I would just get a standard 180 at your LFS, no point in buying from glass cages if your going for a standard sized tank that cost less/the same at your LFS. I've never had a glasscages tank, but I have heard some horror stories about there tanks(not saying other manufacturers don't have problems too).

I can not find a local fish store that carries a 180 gallon tank. The only thing in the local area is Pet Smart and the biggest glass tank is a 150 and I hat the dimensions 48 x 24 x 30 and it is to tall to get decorations in the tank. That's why I am ordering from Glasscages.

Not disagreeing with you but the 150 is a whole lot better than the 110(18"d), if I were limited to space I would get one. Too bad they don't have the one with overflows on it.

I have a hard time thinking a LFS can't get standard tanks. They may not be on the floor but may be able to order.

I asked the manager and they said they have bigger but they are acrylic, The biggest glass tanks they have is the 150 gallon and I don't like the tanks dimensions at 48L by 24W and 30T. I had one for a year and sold it because I couldn't get decoraations in it. This is why I am ordering a 180 gallon from Glasscages.com

Petsmart won't order anything they don't normally carry. They couldn't even get me a 125 that's on their website. Said I'd have to go to a store that carries it. I asked about bigger and they acted like bigger than a 125 was insane.

You don't have a LFS other than petsmart? You need to go to a locally owned small pet store. Go on Marinlands/Aqueon website and look for a dealer in your area!

I have one. Sent an email and never heard back. They're across town so I plan on going at some point. The other dealers are either SUPER overpriced or are out of business. I live in a large city, not everyone does.

Ye the reason I said just get it from a LFS is beacause I'm spoiled and live under an hour away from this huge fish store called that fish place, but if he looked around I bet there is somewhere not too far away that can order a 180 for him or have it in stock. I think glasscages would be good for a costom sized tank but for standard sized tanks I wouldn't think it's worth it unless there is no pet shop that can order one in in like an hour or so from your house. Again I've never owned a glasscages tank and take this with a grain of salt.
