Anything in particular to check for? I haven't bought any tanks from Petco for this same reason. But my buddy bought one last year and had no issues
 
Not sure, but I just want to give you a heads up on the quality of those tanks being made. Inspect the tank for the silicone. Last time I looked at 20g high tanks. I went to 3 Petcos. I bought one and had to bring it back, because one end of the glass was way off. What I thought was going to be a quick exchange, nope. The other tanks there were garbage. Went to another one and they were all sloppy. Went to the next one. They had 2 tanks with chipped glass. I told the manager. They never pulled them off the shelf.
 
I was told that their will be a short sale for 1 dollar per gallon tanks during the 1st week of July or so, waiting to buy another QT tank.

I got my 29 galQT from petco on their last $1 a gallon sale and its great. The manufacturer of the tanks themselves I believe, are from Marineland not made by Petco they are just the distributor. Just to clarify, if its being implied that Petco is making the tanks :)
 
Only issue I dont like about their tanks is how long and thin they are. Hard to create a sense of depth
 
I have a 20,10,5 gallon from petco. Love them for QT tanks. The 20 would make a nice display.. Have no issues with them. I bought a 40 breeder many years ago for a tank move and it was in my garage for ages before I sold it. The 40 was super solid and heavy I might add. REally thick glass and made well. I hope they keep up the good construction on the low price aquariums.

I bought a 40 breeder during their sale last year and it was pretty hefty. Drilled no problems. I just drilled a 20H from there a few weeks back and knock on wood that's doing fine as well.
 
I have a 40 gal breeder from them. The glass is thin. If I look down the front glass from the side, it bows pretty good.
 
There was one in April. I bought a week too early. Used to be AllGlass tanks now its Aqueon and used to be all tanks 5g up to 55g now its 10g to 40g.
 
This is at Arlington Heights Pet Supplies Plus in IL,

I asked and was told they just had one in April. The next one will be in Oct. I guess it is not a nation wide thing. Different stores, different times.
