Going to Bigger tank need help

[markc]

Ok, so I have a 90 gallon reef tank and I am going to go bigger. I have been looking at a custom 190 gallon tank from glass cages aquariums. The total for this reef ready tank with stand and refugium is around $1700. Does anybody know if their tanks are any good or not? If not can you give me any recommendations for a place to get a tank from, that will ship it. Thanks.

I am sure that a new tank comes with a guarantee. Any tank can leak, so fill it first with regular water to check..Then drain it and refill with your saltwater when you are ready.
Congratulations, keep us posted and be sure to take pictures...

There are also plenty of negative posts about them too. Some people think they're great, while other regret doing business with them.
Just do a quick online search...plenty of reading on both sides.

I may be old school, but I have a terrific 180g Oceanic, 10 years old, no leaks, no problems. Seems 180 is about the std limit, any higher and you go custom.
Lots of people should ship, after all, every retail shop has all their tanks shipped in, and livestock as well. And almost any big supplier will have posts out there, good and bad.
Best of luck to you. I'm lucky to live in a major city, but I get all my livestock online.
