I'll assume you are talking about a reptile tank/vivarium/terrarium, since this is the reptile forum. There isn't really a particular 'cheap' brand of tank, but here is what I normally do.

Figure out what size and kind of cage you need, depending on the animal. (A ball python, for example, should have a 36X14X20 cage, a red tegu would need something 86X24X24, at least, while a single leopard gecko only needs a common 10 gallon terrarium.) Figure out if you need something with a sliding front door, a screen top, etc, also depending on the reptile.

Go to kingsnake.com, click on the classifieds tab, then go to the cages, racks, and terrariums. You'll find hundreds and hundreds of people selling cages, anywhere from 10 dollars to 10,000 dollars, depending on the kind of the cage, whether it is new or used, etc. Look for someone who is willing to ship to you, or is located in your area for a local pick-up, e-mail them about the cage, purchase it, then arrange for it to get to you.

If that doesn't work, try petco, or ebay, but kingsnake.com is your best bet for a wide variety of enclosures for relatively cheap.

Good luck, and I hope you find what you are looking for!

Check the want ads in the newspaper--sometimes people are selling them really cheap. If they are for turtles, just make sure they hold water and don't leak! Watch for sales at local department stores or petstores.
