Oceanic Tech Tank 90, any one in PA?

richfavinger · 12/02/2011, 12:32 AM

Just called a LFS to ask about an Oceanic Tech Tank 90gal... he told me, nada... he has nothing... His distributors don't even have Oceanic aquariums listed. He does have AGA Reef Ready...

So whats up with Oceanic? He did have Deep Blue, but like many here... no one knows any thing about them. Am I missing something?

I know who he deals with that carries deep blue and they do not deal with Oceanic. Your LFS needs to get more than one supplier.

Deep Blue's tanks are pretty good. I've used alot of their stuff and they are on par with AGA as far as tank quality goes. I like the black silicone look too.

OK well, I did find out a little more since I posted this...
Over at Reef Builders they had an article regarding Oceanic. The way I read it is... either, they are no longer making the large aquariums (75, 90, 120, 150, 180 ect) OR they still are but only VERY limited quantity and only special order...

Further investigation shows that a few engineers and techs from Oceanic split and made their own company, located in Texas... called Deep Sea Aquatics... http://www.deepseaaquatics.net/ in fact, it is stated right on the website, they use to work for Oceanic.

So, why I asked in the first place... is I would like to get a Oceanic (or equal) Tech Tank type system in 90g, and perhaps with Starphire front. Is their any one in PA that can get such a system in, in my area 19464, so I don't have to pay an ungodly shipping fee...
