    Does anyone have an on-line place they would recommend to buy a 65 gallon drilled glass tank?

    What kind of tank are you looking for? If you want an ADA drilled 120p they can order them from Japan and ship to your house. Its 5 sided Starphire without excess silicon on the glass. The edges are beautifully beveled so its not sharp. I would call Aqua Forest and see what they can quote you with shipping.

    ADA is Aqua-Design-Amano (Creator of Nature aquariums)
    They make some of the nicest and most expensive tanks, plus hard scapes, ferts, substrate, etc.
    Aqua Forest Aquarium (AFA) Is one of my LFS's, they supply all the ADA stuff.

    i would think shipping would be crazy ordering a tank online. do you have a LFS that can order you one?

    well boyz and gals, I'm stepping up in the reefing world. I'm going to have a sump lol

    Thank you so much for those specific websites Marshall! You are so nice that way when you give people assistance.

    I will go check them out. Now, I need some encouragement not to be afraid of having a sump.

    I'm also confused on the difference between a drilled system and an overflow? Are they the same thing?
