How old is your 110?
I bought the tank and stand in 2003. The whole stand/canopy is not made of particle board, just some support pieces.

Even if they were to warranty it, I would think the tank would be a major hassle to move.

I apologize if I'm straying away from the thread topic.

I hope Oceanic makes some bigger sizes and bowfronts in the Tech Series.

Its about time somebody mass produced tanks with Starphire viewing panels.

Awesome tanks everyone!

Curious to know what special about the Oceanic tech tanks?Does it have saffire glass?

I'm starting to regret buying an AGA 210 megaflow cause those Oceanics looks so much nicer.

The front pane is starphire. most of us think the sides are starphire too. there is the euro bracing, painted back, and lifetime warranty. the glass is thicker, the seams are black, and very nicely done. they have center overflows as well. the stands have doors on three sides for easy access as well. both oceanic tank that I have owned were far supperior in appearence to any AGA that I have owned.

i talked to dan at the salty critter about them about 8 months ago and he got me a quote within the hour and said he could have it in under a week.


i am just trying to decide on a 45cube or the all out 120

Still waiting to get the call on my 90. Unfortunately I still feel a little unsure of getting a tank that's 25" tall. I wish they made a tech 75 with a 4 foot length.

Purebullet, what did you pay for your tank and stand if you don't mind my asking? I'm selling my larger tank and debating what to do with my 37. Doing all the custom stuff I was considering may cost as much as the 45 tech tank.

I think I was quoted 1100 for the 45 tank/stand/Oceanic sump/250w Coralife Aqualight pro 250w HQI.

KMP,

That is a cool way to use the holes in the eurobracing for return lines!

What type of fans are those at the back of the tank? Are they just computer fans or is that some type of unit that you purchased?

Thanks. I think I'm going to have a 37 built in low iron glass and have the overflow drilled on the back so I can use my current stand. Going over the build threads on the Tech 45, my custom sump won't fit through the stand doors on the Tech.

J3REEF, is that a Blackhawks jersey I see on the stairs wall?
I believe I may go Bare Bottom as well with my 120.
