Where To Buy My Tank..?

[holidayinn]

Hi All

I've decided to invest in a brand new tank. I have had issues with second hand ones and don't want to go down that road again. My question is, are there any cheap & quality suppliers out there

I only know of two sellers right now:

ND Aquatics - 6*2*2 tank for approx £550

or c-dream b2000 aquariumsdelivered 6.5*2*1.5 (ish) for approx £600 (with fluval f5)

I definitely prefer the ND aquatics tank as it's a standard rectangular tank and should spread the pressure of the water much better then the B2000. Are there any companies that can compete with ND on build and price?

Anyone with past experiences of ND? I've only heard good things, is this true?

Many thanks

Just doing some research - Anyone with any experience of http/www.aquariums.ltd.uk/index.asp???

Seems like they have some good offers with a 3 year guarantee 6*2*2 £550ish delivered, think nd aquatics is only 2 years guarantee...who would you go for? any others to consider?

Thanks

I would take a look on Ebay - I bought mine on there for half the price in the shops and im really pleased with it.

its not like i got money to burn or anything but buying a 6ft tank second hand is a lot of hassle..i remember me and my brother struggling to carry a 5ft tank down three flights of stairs, surely up the stairs is easier then down?

the new tanks on ebay are all too small or expensive for my liking and i've had good/bad experiences of buying second hand..now i know more then i knew then but figure with this size tank, LT investement, a little peace of mind
