Gombe Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I agree way to expensive, with the popularity of nano tanks you think the crystal clear of acrylic would be far more popular.Maybe a great business opportunity for someone. I guess importing a whole container load to make it viable isn't worth the risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E4G13M4N Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Supply and demand i would assume is the reason, but the cost of acrylic here is way over the topCan remember a few years ago cost me over $300 for acrylic pre cut to make a tank smaller than a standard 2' and that was before it was assembled, that was through a tank builder in SA not sure what he paid for the acrylic though.

Agree given the benefits of Acrylic you would think it would be easier . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
