Howdy.

I'm getting ready to put together a 125 and was wondering who has the best glass tanks in the area. I'm thinking either Exotic or O Street but wouldn't rule anyone else out. I may be ordering some custom options, starphire glass, etc... so I'd be interested to hear of your experiences.

Thanks!

You might also want to talk to Ted at Tropical Haven in Modesto. He's one of the largest dealers in Aquarium Masters tanks in no. Cal, and might be able to save you a group of cash on the tank. Definitely worth the cost of the phone call to find out. He can do special/custom orders as well.

Second that, he quoted me $270 for 100 or 135 60" with built in overflow and eurobracing

They have some cheap rare fish, and $40 red bubble tips so look around, but inside the store looks like it just reopened after a cease fire in Chechnya.

I'll definetely agree to that! They do have great deals on their tanks though. I picked up two 29g glass tanks for ~$20 each. And their fish prices are incredibly low in some instances... but I wonder about their health.

Yeah, it's the last building standing in Iraq, but if you do go, look around. I picked up a little giant digital thermometer for $14. Incredible pricing. In fact they were advwertising one of those new Eheim Wave Tanks for $400.
