ok guys another dumb question i am looking for a 200 gallon tank but most places i have found so far that have tanks that bid are custom built and that is a little spendy and most people in the classifieds are too far away for me to pick up a tank is there anywhere online that sells just predrilled tanks and equiptment that i might be overlooking? here is my email so let me know please blknght1@juno.com

Have you checked the trading and classifieds section on this board? There is usually someone selling a large tank in there. Also you may want to search on ----. Other than that you will have to just look around.

From what I have seen so far, most places don't stock tanks that size, because there isn't as much demand for them. You may have to have it made for you.
I don't know of anyplace that does anyway.

That is true, but I would still check it everyday until you decide where to have one made. You just never know. You might get lucky. One thing to remember also is even if you have it made you will still have to pay shipping.

Awesome prices, but from that area code, it's in Tennessee. That is potentially some heavy shipping costs.

200gal down to a 55gal........She must wear the pants. At least she could let you get a little bigger tank. Push for a 90gal or 110gal.

she doesn't wear the pants but marriage is built on compromise i have been building a car in my spare time and with almost all our spare money so she got a tank so to get another tank i have to recarpet our house so i only have to carpet 2 rooms to get the tank so a good compromise
