i was looking at a aquarium from glasscages.com and was wondering if anyone has dealt with them or heard anything about them or just your opinion. i was looking at a 150g acrylic with two corner overflows. check them out or whatever and let me know, thanks everyone.

Re: glasscages.com
Personally, I am not a fan of acrylic. I have a 100 gallon acrylic tank at work and my 125 all glass at home. The acrylic does not seem as clear a tank and gets scratched soooo easily, to me, it was not worth it. Personal choice I guess.

Re: glasscages.com
same here, i definitely perfer glass over acrylic. the only thing with glasscages.com is they wont deliver glass tanks, in order to get one from them, you have to go pick it up.
But they will deliver acrylic tanks

Re: glasscages.com
Starphire glass is awesome.If you can afford it,I would go with at least the front viewing using starphire glass.When I was looking for a tank,Oceanic made custom tanks with that glass but it was really expensive.The LFS quoted me a price three times as much as my AGA.Oceanic does have standard starphire tanks up to 120gal(front viewing starphire glass,dual overflows,painted black back,euro-bracing,black seams)......very nice but was out of my reach.

Re: glasscages.com
