I plan to buy a 48x24x24 Starphire (low iron) glass aquarium.


Thanks.

I've heard many stories of their
new tanks being sold as leakers
that the recipient had to reseal,
but their pricing is very tempting
even if you have to reseal them.

i wouldn't do it. it seems as though if you are local you get "the good stuff", but if you aren't you don't.

I have never heard anything but good stuff about glasscages, and after getting a tank from them they seem to be much nicer built than the stuff at the lfs. Unfortunately their prices are going up alot. The tank I bought last year is now $100 more. Edit> I just checked it went up even more, $150 more now than just abotu a year ago, thats three $50 hikes. great tanks but :thumbsdow on the price hikes.

I have an acrylic tank that I bought from them and was shipped to me. I haven't had any problems with it. Also, I too have not heard anything bad about them--until the 2 posts above.......

Do you happen to have some pictures of their acrylic tank? how's the quality? I'm kinda thinking acrylic now since I'm in CA and have kids.

There's pix of it on my Acrochordus website (in my sig). I cannot really say much about it, because its the only acrylic aquarium that I have ever owned. I still prefer glass.

Kids? Acrylic scratches on the outside just as easily on the inside.

The only problem I've heard is that their seams on the glass aquariums are sloppy.
