    Default 150gal. tank

    i know some you have ordered tanks from glasscages.com. or anyone else

    how do you like it?
    how's the quality?
    does the glass scratch easy?

    i'm looking for a 150 60x24x25( or 24). and have only come across one made by glasscages.

    anyone know of other makers?

    I have a 240g low iron glass from glasscages and I am happy the quality, it will probably outlive me

    it does not scratch easy.

    Oceanic makes tanks with those dimensions, but calls it a 156gallon tank. Dimensions listed are 60.5 x 24.5 x 25. You can get info from them at www.oceanicsystems.com . If you wanted one you would have to call around to the LFS to get a price and have them order it for you.

    i just put water in my glass cage tank. THe tank was built good but he messed up on my overflow, type of glass and he forgot about 10 holes in eurobracing. i am happy with the product he is a little messy with the silicone but other than that i would buy another tank from him just hope he makes it correct

    I ordered an 155 Oceanic from Texas Tropical with an over size over flow on the right. Yes it is a custom size and it's expensive but so is 155 gallons of saltwater on your living room floor. I don't have anything against Glass Cages because I like there bracing, but time will tell how good they are?

    hey captex.... thanks for the info.. i checked with a few dealers and they didn't show a listing for the tank. the 60.5x24.5x25 will work.

    now, for the guys that have tanks from glass cages.

    when u got the starfire glass, did u have all sides or just the front panel?
    what was your shipping charge?
    how thick is the glass? is it 3/8. i think Oceanic is using 1/2 for tanks above 90 gall.

    it looks like it's gonna cost me 330 just for the shipping or i can pick it up from the fish show in dallas for shipping cost of 80 bucks.
