Aquarium

[ginger7286]

Hello,

Is there a difference in aquariums? Is one manufacturer better than the other? I am interested in setting up a 150-200 gallon saltwater tank and I am wondering if there is a difference. If there is, what should I look for and what should I should away from?
Thanks

Welcome to MR!! There are many manufacturers out there and I know it can be difficult to choose the right one sometimes. A lot of people here tend to stick to either Oceanic or AGA (All Glass Aquarium). I have a custom built 180 which I love so I guess it really depends. Shop around and see what is out there. Sometimes the most expensive is not the best but at the same time you may get what you pay for. It is always better to get as large a tank as you have space for an d can afford. Keep in mind that the tank is not the only investment you are making. Protein skimmers, lighting, and pumps are just a few of the other items you must factor in. These things will drive up the cost in the blink of an eye. You should also remember that you will be using quite a bit of electricity as well. Just a few things to rember. Best advice anyone can give you is read and learn as much as possible. Ask questions cause a lot of people here will be more than happy to help you. This is a great place to start out and WELCOME!!!!

Shipping a used tank to Florida is not cost-effective.
