BlakeyBoyR Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 An 8' acrylic tank won't be cheap I dont think. From what I've heard acrylic is far more expensive than normal glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've heard acrylic is far more expensive than normal glass. ← definatley far more expensive and they scratch oohh so easy i have seen some beautifull examples, truely breathtaking. but if curves are your thing , it can be done with glass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davez104 Posted June 3, 2005 Share Posted June 3, 2005 Hey Rob, I think they got a typo on their website, says they stock stands and hoods for tanks up to 96 feet long!! If it's not a typo, I want one, imagine what you could keep in that sucker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoges Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 don't even go there on the scratching issue My algae brush detroyed my acrylic tank without even a second glance. The tank now looks constantly milky and is terrible for photos - i know now that i was foolish but what can you do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
