Do you have any pictures of the setup?

[carmanimports]

if it is oceanic then thats not a bad price oceanic is a great tank with a warrnty for the liffe the tank so the price is not so bad if it was an aga tank thats a diffrent story

I almost feel as if I am getting the tank. I cant wait to see if getting stocked over the next few months.

I paid $40 bucks for my Oceanic with stand, stock light hood, and Emporer 400...but its only 55gal.

ha ya well the store said they would deliver it wed thought fri so 1 more week

you need to fill it with water and get a picture of you in it like a fish. That's a huge tank! I had a 125G but with deployments and all the wife would have a hard time maintaining it. I've still got 12.5 years untill i retire and untill i get a 200G + tank.

For now i'll be satisfied looking at other peoples setups. I'm excited for you! Good luck with it.

but you really think i over paid
is the 29 gallon your biggest?

I paid about $1,000 for a 180G AGA with stand. But it depends on what manufacturer you have. Prices can vary and you did not necessarily overpay.

Besides you already paid for it. Don't worry get over it and move on.....Good luck with the tank.
Have fun building it and remember 2 pumps instead of one.

do different companys have sturdier glass, or sturdier stands than others?

when i get my own place, i plan on having a 300+ tank. so im just tryign to think ahead.
