Does anyone know of an online place to order rimless aquariums?
Im just looking around and wanted to know where I would be able to find one.
Glass cages hardly ever delivers to SA.
So it would be $86 to Dallas or Houston and then I would have to pay for gas to haul myself up there.
Oh one more question, do they include taxes already or dose the price go up even more?

Texas Tropical has one in stock. Not that big, but that tells me they could probably get larger.

I dont know that for a FACT i just say what was going around a couple years ago. how about Gabe(gabes Fish or Jason (AD). i have a 215 rimless and will never go back to a braced tank

Kevin, go talk to Chris at TT. He quoted a Marineland 60G rimless just like mine from Glasscages for the exact same price minus the shipping of course.

if you are looking for a top quality rimless tank then you should contact john at kingfish aquarium in austin. they are a.g.e. dealers. a.g.e. is regarded as the best custom tank in the business in their price bracket. the only product that compares is elos, but a custom elos would cost as much as a kia. and for slightly less you can probably pick up an aquarium obsessed tank, but that would include shipping.

here are some links, and john at kingfish is a maast sponsor.

The only rimless TT had was a 65, the 210 that they keep on hand is Aqueon and has a trim. The only tanks that they get that dont come from a large company are the ones they keep out sidemade by a guy out in Houston. All the tanks inside are made by companies like All-glass, Aqueon, among other big name brands.
