any websites or stores for cheap 55 - 70 gall fish tanks?

Question

please give me links to sites with prices EXPECT EBAY

Answer 1

If you're looking for something new, WalMart will probably be the cheapest for their tank "kit". In my area, the 55 gallon would run about $160. The equipment you get with these isn't always the greatest, and you'll still need to purchase a heater and gravel. If you buy a new tank and equipment online, you'll probably have to pay shipping, which can get expensive, considering the weight of a 55 gallon glass tank. If you want new and good quality at a reasonable price, you may just want to compare prices at local pet stores around your area.

If you don't mind buying used, try one of these websites:
http://www.craigslist.org/about/cities.html - regional/city listings
http://www.freecycle.org/group/ - state listings - find local groups within each state - all items listed are free
http://www.aquabid.com/ - online auction (you'll need to pay shipping unless you can find something near you, or are will ing to make the trip and pick it up yourself)

Answer 2

For 55-70 gal a 4 ft tank would be standard length. From time to time you will find tanks of this size in some stores at perhaps $20-$25 lower than another store .Be caucious sometimes these tanks will be made with a thinner glass and thats why they are cheaper. These tanks can bow out when filled with water. They do not burst but if you are setting them up in a place in your house where a broken tank would be disastorus then you have less of a safty factor

Answer 3

It's tough using a website as they can be from all over the country, and the cost of shipping a large tank can be more than the tank itself. I've had luck checking the local newspapers, and possibly try www.craigslist.com. They have people selling stuff in all different areas of the country. Your other option could be to sign up to a fish discussion forum. They will often have an area where users can list items they are selling.

Answer 4

You are buying a glass box; to fill with water and set in your living room or bed room,are you sure that you want the cheapest you can get? The water will weigh between 400 and 600 #'s.
Look for a reputable,knowlegeable pet store and save money some other way.
