Hey people,
It's been a long time since I visited here. Probably 2 1/2 years. I had a 12g reef tank with fish for about five years, but took it down when we had our third child.(needed room in the living room, for baby stuff).

Anyway, at one time, I had two 40g breeder tanks, and was going to build my own set up, but, I sold it all, you guessed it, when we had the baby. Back then, I lived in Houston Texas, and had access to an LFS and he got me the tanks. Now, I'm living out in the country in NE Missouri, and there isn't an LFS for hundreds of miles. Im ready to build my dream tank and get another reef going, but I will have to buy online. Does anyone know where I can get a 40g breeder tank?

There are several alternatives to a standard 40B you MAY be interested in such as Red Sea's tanks. Several places ship these...google it up.

Honestly, I've been away from it all for so long, I don't even know where to look anymore. Besides, red sea, who do you recommend? I'm looking for something around the same dimensions, and not an all in one.

40 gallon rimless from Mr. Aqua looks pretty sweet.

Petco has their $1 per gallon sale right now. I just picked up a 40 breeder to use as a sump.
