Glasscage Vs Marineland/Perfecto

[dmopar74]

the 265 is 84x24x31, and if your store sells marinland tanks, their real a-holes if they charge you shipping on it.

ohh..so the guy just assumed the 265 was 72x24x36 lol... im not sure if they will charge me for shipping but im pretty sure they will...how else will they make profit?

i dont think the tank should be more than $2,000....if it is...id rather buy the acrylic tank

We installed a glasscages 850 gallon glass tank and it exploded after 4 months of operation the silicone seams failed it was a nightmare.

**** i noticed my door entry is 3 ft exact....if i purchase the 300g wide i think i gota carry it sideway inside..whats the height on the 300g wide perfecto?

damn i think best thing for me to do is jsut buy acrylic from glasscages..hey CSX, what did GC do for you in return due to their flaw?

27 inches I believe is the height

27 inches I believe is the height

if i was to carry the tank sideways into the house u think itll be ok??? hopefully the tank dont break??? considering how heavy it is i dont know... the width of my door entry is 3ft exact i cant fit a 3 ft wiide tank into it..unless i twist it sideways

the acrylic tank from glasscages should be flawless from leaks/cracks for a lifetime right? they just make weak glass tanks...but acrylic is different and no one that purchased acrylic from GC had any issues right?

I would look into that on this forum and other big fish forums online to try and get a good picture of the range of experiences out there..
