looking for tank

Looking for a place in western PA to purchase a reef tank in the 100-150 gallon range. Any suggestions?

Elmers IMO is the best option for buying new tanks and stands around here. Take a look at the local selling forum on FB, salt water crazy I believe there are a couple of tanks for sale atm.

If you have the extra money to spend aqua world carries red sea tanks and I think I heard there installation cost are pretty cheap, but I am not sure.

Also reef gallery I believe will order Red sea tanks, but I am not sure what services they provide.

Thank you. I have been in contact with Elmers, but they (and supplier) don't seem to have any tanks available in my range. I'll look into the other options.

Are you looking for a factory or custom? @acer has a SCA 150g. You’d be surprised at sometimes that a custom tank can be similar in cost to a factory tank.

Tanks are tough to get atm. Covid has slowed tank production either due to over seas manufacturing or source material. Last time that I looked my wholesaler had nothing in stock. You could get a red sea or a water box. Those are generally instock at the wholesale facilities. Obviously the price point is a bit different. If you wan a standard factory tank you may either have to buy used or wait awhile.

I have a 150 gallon standard tank I was going to setup but no stand. Not sure if it’s what you’re looking for but I will part with it. Has light oak color plastic trim. Dimensions are 48”x24”x30”.

Thanks so much, but I am looking for something with a different size footprint. Cheers!
