Hello,
Anyone have any idea where to order the top brace for a 6' 125 gallon tank. Buddy of mine just got a free one, but the bracing on top is cracked :( Our LFS doesn't order bracing, so I just wanted to see if anyone knows where to pick this up at. PM, posts, links or whatever would be most appreciated.

Try this link email them and see if they still have them in stock saltwatercritters.com
 
where is it cracked at? my 5ft 120g started cracking right where the middle brace meets the edge of the front of the tank and i fixed it by getting a metal L-shaped brace, painted the top of it black to match the rim and then used the welding glue (comes in two tubes that you mix portions together right before mixing) to hold the brace onto the tank and just braced the tank together so that the edges of the crack met until the weld dried and its been holding it perfectly together for about a year now (sorry i was so vague im just writing this from the top of my head, if you think this fix will work for you i can give you the specifics and a picture)

Hey Sarah88,
Thanks for the response and sorry for my delay in responding. I hadn't been on this site in a while (plus my firefox quit working for a week for some reason). It was cracked and broken in several places. I actually found a fish shop in Richmond that carried them for $35. I have removed the old one and am waiting on the LFS to get their order. Should be in this week and I'll redo it this weekend. Have a good one,
