Actually it's more that the public doesn't respect the outside. That
picture that is posted is from the public viewing side, so no doubt the
outside is extremely scratched up from kids pressing themselves
and their zippers/etc against it.
Aye...lightness is definitely an issue. I have a 24" deep tank right now
and have absolutely no problem reaching the bottom with it. A 27"
won't be a problem either, although a 30" might start pushing it :>
Thanks for the advice :)
Ooof...US$1900 is about CA$3000. Higher than I want to spend right
now :> Long tank..must be nice :) I'll see how Interamerican's
prices compare to the 220 I can get locally for MRSP of CA$1300
(before haggling that is). CA$1300 is about US$800 right now.
Thanks for the replies. Just to address some of them:
- I definitely won't buy a tank non drilled, so the 34" is pretty much out.
I probably didn't convey that well enough
- I'm tall, reaching into a 30" tank isn't a problem, although if I have it
on a fairly tall stand I may need a footstool...
I'm upgrading my tank, here are the facts, two tanks to
choose from:
- going to build my own stand/hood
- 180 plexi is CA$800 (72x24x24)
- 220 glass (perfecto) is CA$1300 (72x24x30)
- 245 glass CA$800, (72x24x34), not drilled, seller wont guarantee
drilling.
I have a 2x175W hamilton halide...
