Large tank price ?

[james-vader]

anyone know how much a 60x36x24 euro braced starfire center overflow tank would cost? thanks

I would give a couple LFS a call to get a quote.

It's gonna be somewhere close to 2 grand, I would have to guess...

[james-vader]

2 grand really? thats pretty steep

[fresh2120]

Big tanks are never cheap. I spent over 2k on my 300. 96x30x24...

[jt_milstead]

Low iron glass is expensive. One other thing you'll have to consider in price is that, the bottom glass will have to be tempered after its drilled.

Yep if you want brand new, and custom dimensions it's going to be costly... If your not opposed to a little manual labor I'd just try to find something used on here or CL, might not be exact dims you want and may have some wear but it'll be far cheaper. And then you can use all the extra money on other useful items and stocking the tank.

very true, ill probably call a few places to see how much, i like the wider tanks because you can do some cool aquascaping

I would do just as JT said. Call around and get quotes. I agree it will be in the ballpark of 2k

[paulyboy18]

And uh yeah this hobby is EXPENSIVE! If you're worried about the 2 grand for the tank, just wait till you buy all the necessary equipment for it.... And don't forget stocking it, heck at $2lb live rock you're gonna be dropping close to 600 just for that...

These aren't the exact dimensions that you said you were looking for but they are certainly pretty close and for a HUGE amount of money leas than a new setup.
