Best LFS for buying tanks?

[reefIQ0.0]

I am in the market for a new tank and would love to view some of the major systems out there in person before making any decisions. Are there any LFS in the NYC area where I can view and purchase a new system on site?

id say just buy from the site; i work at a fish shop occasionally during classes and what not and we sell tanks, however the hassle in my opinion makes it not worth it. but take this as an anecdote

Not much in Manhattan, I would recommend going to Absolutely Fish as they have a lot on display and in stock.

Been there, great store but not much of a showroom for reef tanks and none of the Waterbox/ IM/Red Sea stuff there. They did have one complete reef setup from a brand I have not heard of that will be on sale this weekend that looked pretty nice though.

When buying tanks, local fish stores can really vary in quality and price. Some specialize in reef setups, while others offer better warranties. It’s similar to choosing reliable platforms like https://casino-stranieri.com/, you need to check reviews, trust the source, and ensure long-term support before investing, whether it’s for your aquarium or any other hobby.

Thanks for the review.

Petco has tanks that are 55 to 75 gallons in your range and are made by Imagitarium. Much heavy glass than Aqueon. 55 gallon $114. 60 gallon breeder going for $131 normal price $219. 75 gallon $180 normally $319. I highly recommend these tanks.
