      Shallow glass tank and stand wanted

      I'm looking to set up a shallow reef. Does anyone have a used set up or can anyone suggest where I can get a nice glass shallow tank?. I'm already getting a quote from Visio on a brand-new one. But I'd like to see what else I can find on here.

      I found the Deep Blue Professional 80 gallon rimless for $599 on fishtanksdirect.com which is pretty much what I'm looking for but I would prefer the tank be rimless all the way around.


      DEEP BLUE 80-GALLON 48"LX24"WX16"H RIMLESS GLASS FRAG TANK

      I would prefer the tank to be 48" x 24" by at least 16" tall but no more than 18". I'd also prefer not to have to have it shipped all the way from across the country and if there are any local people that can get the job done I'd rather do that as well.

      I'd also like a nice stand. Something that looks a little more presentable then a completely DIY plywood set up. I'm OK with it being the standard or typical height of a stand but I would really like it to be just a bit higher than standard if possible.

      Thanks for your help.

      Vince

      Well I know there's a lot of places I can get it made. I guess I should have rephrased my question. I know there are some people on here that deal with tanks so I would like to go through them if possible to give them the business and just keep it all through SDR. I might just end up going with LeeMar or Visio like you said. Just thought I'd throw it out here in case somebody had one also.

      Worth a shot.

      Crystal Dynamics is what Leemar has become.

      Go to aquatic warehouse and get a quote for a visio rimless. They are building my 24x24x16 with synergy overflow. I contacted crystal dynamic and they quoted me a stupidly outrageous price for one. Not even reef savvy and miracles quoted me that much.

      Both of these^^^ quotes were from Visio? Through Aquatic Warehouse?

      No those were from Crystal Dynamic which used to be Leemar. I just posted that to show how their quote variance is just plain stupid.

      The same tank at Aquatic Warehouse made by Visio quoted me $340 for regular glass and $540 for low iron.

      I went with Visio after seeing my buddy's new rimless tank. His is 48x30x18 which he went through aquatic warehouse and the price was really good as well.
