I am curious from seeing some of these prices if these tanks are new or used when they were bought?I just ordered a new 150 drilled with overflow and it cost me $973.00 new.My stand&canopy plus all the supplies will make me pull my hair out if i added them up!

TeresaQ,
Did you get oceanview or all glass?I shopped around here for about a month and there was very little difference in the prices so i decided to go ahead and give my money to my favorite lfs,they have gave me deals in the past so i like to return the favor when i can.

lol.. no i wasnt hired by the wife's. just curious to see what everyone paid for their tanks, kinda lets everyone know what the majority price is. cause u know LFS they all say, "ya this is a good price, everywhere else will ask this much." We have to ban together against the monopoly of the LFS.. The UFO's united fish owners..lol...
