Thanks, Looked at Petco, PetSmart, SeaWorld, Walmart, and a local FS.
Closest was a 120 that was just too wide for where it needs to go.
I was thinking of mail order, anyone use any that were good ?

Getting from local large retailer will save a fortune in shipping costs. -- if they don't have the size you want, they usually will order for you.
Shopping/researching for new tank is fun.
I saw a new 215 Oceanic at LFS yesterday going out to some customer (w/starfire glass on front) --- looked awesome. _________ AG "125," AquaC EV 180, 30 gal sump, "SCWD", 80 lbs LR, CoralSeaLife "Moonlite" Hood, PFO 250W HQI Mini-Pendant (SPS HQI 14000k bulb)
12 Gallon NanoCube - 24w stock PC 50/50 light "...nothing good ever happens fast in a reef tank, only bad things happen fast..."

Go to Petco while they still may have the tank your are looking for. Their sale is only on what they have instock. The sale is on all 10- 55gal tanks! _________  120 RR AGA, 2000gph, 840watts lighting, Aqua C- 150 (w/ mag12), DIY Kalk Reactor, 7 years reef keeping

Man, look on ebay. Just refine your search to a 50 mile radius and you would be suprised what good deals you find. There is always someone out there that rushed into a tank set up and are fed up with the problems they are having after a year and they sell it all...cheap! _________ Scott 265g (Peninsula)
