Just ordered a new Tenacor tank that measures 8x3x2 last week cost me $2200 shipped the salesman gave me a 30% discount idk if that was a special they had or he just gave that to me. Shipping alone cost me $720 so depends on where you live might be cheaper. That leaves you around $800 to get your filters and prob a DIY stand anyways GL on your search.
Keep the ideas coming , can't afford to do more maybe scrounge up an extra $500 but thats pushing it. am looking at glasscages 8 x 3 x 2 probably thats at least $1300 leaves me $1700 for the rest , two FX5's are a good idea maybe 2 eheim 2180's? still looking at some ideas,originally plan was at 2 G's but it's not feasible. maybe 3500? lol anyway like I said keep the ideas coming. Definitely DIY stand for me.

Go ebay or craig's and save some of that money for a rainy day. don't dump your entire tax return into a tank. save some.
glasscages best bang for the buck I had mine running for 4 years before I sold it. look for a used 75g turn it into a sump figure $200 for a water pump $70 for a couple heaters. You could do a lot with 3000
honestly i think that you could get a used setup (i.e. tank, lights, stand, top) for 1.5g that leaves you .5g for 2 fx5s 300 for 3 small motoros, 300 for large datnoid, 200 for large geos, 100 for large arowana and 100 for shipping. 3g exactelgeebeekei10;3843431; said:
