    I'm looking to upgrade, but most of the stores around here don't have any drilled tanks

    I'm looking for any tank that is 72" long any good places online that sell a whole set up tank stand and hood

    for what exactly are you looking?? You could always custom order one. there are many different styles, designs, etc. Almost all online stores ship and so will custom tank builders. It has to get there one way or the other.

    I'm in the market as well for a 48" rimless tank but aside from glasscages and deep blue, haven't really heard of any others - anyone that can shed some light? I know LeeMar has been mentioned but they are in CA and I'm in NC, so shipping would be mega $$$$

    Usually there are local custom builders, but not much nationally. In general, you won't find many companies shipping glass tanks, the shipping costs are outrageous for a glass tank. You can get acrylic shipped, but of course they scratch pretty easily, especially in a reef tank, with all the coralline algae growth. It is an option though. I would research glass cages, they have pretty mixed reviews.

    I bought mine from glasscages and it is great. They drilled it with the holes I wanted and delivery wasnt so bad.
