454 gal tank

[bigred]

I was wondering if this a good price. I 454 gal tank with with overflow and the dimensions are 84"Wx24"Dx48"H for around $3900.00. Also it's acrylic. Is this a good price?

That sounds about right for a quality acrylic tank. Going higher than 24-30" and that price just shoots up!
If I may ask. Why do you want an aquarium so tall for?

I don't have the room to go wider or deeper so it would have to go taller. My tank now is 18Dx25Tx84W and the new tank would be 24Dx48Tx84W. This is my wish but he wife said I have to get rid of some of my othe tanks and I said no problem.LOL. ---- I'll combine them all into 1.

What are you going to do to move and clean such a deep tank? Scuba dive in there?

 

[bigred]

get a hoisty and a pool brush. LOL just kidding. I haven't figured that part out yet.

Personally I'd really avoid a tank that tall. All it can be really is fish only w/o 1000w metal halides. Even than, its just an absolute nightmare to clean, take care of.
