Hi guys I am after about three 4x18x18 tanks so if you are selling some I will be interested in three for reasonable prices give me a pm or leave message here. :D
It will be an advantage if they have a built in filter :D

thanks
Matt

ive heard countless stories of there tanks breaking
lawsuits have resulted from what i understand
its not uncommon for them to use seconds glass
im sure im ot the only one who has heard theses things

Lawsuits over tanks breaking... now ive heard it all.

owell each to there own, my experiences have been fine.

the local trade post is probably the cheaper option

I have bought numerous tanks from Mentone in the past too around 8 or so, ranging from 4x2x2's down to stock 3fter's ... never had any problem at all.

must be pretty unlucky to have a tank break :shock:

Cheers,

Dee.

aquariums industries = wholesalers name
