    Need Help buying a new Tank

    Where in the Central Florida Area (or online) would you go to buy a tank (75-100 gallon). Looking for a decent tank at a great price.

    Thanks in advance

    You can check the sponsors form, listed on this website, for local stores that sell new tanks.

    Used tanks: Some ORCA club members might have tanks for sale. Other places are Craig's list, newspaper for sale section or garage sales.

    Chip thanks for the advice. Any specific suggestions? I'm not local and a lot of the LFS don't sell tanks because of the storage space required. Even some of those that do don't always place them on their website so that equates to a lot of phone calls. As to the used tanks. I would prefer something new unless o got one from someone I trust because I am concerned about leaking or damage issues.

    Thanks again any other input would be appreciated.

    I agree with Flcorals. Reefers Direct is probably the closest to you.

    When I bought my 120g back in 2008 I used http://lookingglass-aquariums.com/, they even delivered the tank home and helped me, all for the price of the tank which was cheaper than any other online store or LFS, at that time they were ORCA sponsors and they even gave me discounts.

    Good luck
    Good Luck,
