Fish Tank Brand Suggestions - No rimless no frameless

Hi,

We currently have a frame less/ rim-less cube tank; unfortunately the silicone / glue just gave today and created a leak!

As such, we are looking for a new tank, however we aren't found of the current tanks in the market; almost all the tanks out there are rimless, frame-less, & brace-less. Do they still make traditional tanks with frames with reef / sump support?

We do prefer the all-in-one tanks, but they are mostly frameless. We prefer less maintenance and something ready to go. We are looking for a 40-60 gallon ranged tank.

Thanks.

marineland, perfecto or just about any off the shelf brand will get you what your looking for.



40 breeders make great reef tanks and can usually be had for 40$ when petco has their 1$ a gallon sale.

Plenty of off the shelf options. Aqueon, marineland. Customaquariums.com has a whole line of trimmed tanks.

Thanks.

I have visited the stores, but does anyone know if there is a way to just order directly, or if it is possible to order directly from them?

Thanks

If you where close to Texas, Planet Aquariums would be my answer.

If you're looking for all-in-one, go with JBJ or Innovative Marine.

But a 40 breeder is only $50 when Petco is running their sale. If you want to use a sump or HOB filter.
