Hey Dan -

Petsmart has the Oceanic cubes for $150. Matching stands are $150. They usually have a couple of different colors in stock. Exotic Aquarium usually has them, too. Jody in Chico has one right now but probably way more expensive. Oceanic also makes a 37 near cube which you might prefer.

You might also shop around for a "turtle tank". I know for sure the East Bay Vivarium sells them, I think a 24x24x24 cube is about $180. You can also get them as 24x24x18. One of the Sac area LFS shops sells turtle tanks too, but I can't remember the name of the place - think its in Folsom.

Or, you can come by my house and help me dig out the old turtle tanks in my garage - there is a bed frame in the way that I can't move by myself. They are pretty shallow, I think 24x24x12 and 18x18x10. Free to you.

I think Jody might be able to get you a 24x24 stand.

I think the 24x24x12 would work nice.. Hey i want to check out your topoff again.. I need to devise a bigger system I'm afraid of putting a 20g above my aquarium to gravity feed it like I'm doing now.. Since I'll be gone for the a few days this weekend

for those tunze pumps, try using suction cups that are 2.5 inches in dia. The holes that are already on the bracket, make them into a key hole shape so that the nipple of the suction cup can slide in the smaller side to stick and stay. I've had mine set up like that for 3 continuous months without having to touch it.

edit: instead of 2.5 i think its more like 3 inches... they sell a pairs of suction cups at osh that are rated by weight.

The first one is the hole you need, or shape to create a snug fit around the suction cups.

The second one is the over all image of how its set up.

The third image is the suction cup nipple and the slot that is used to snug in that hole you've made.

If you have any other questions, go right ahead =)
