got a quote from bowvalley on a sump ready, 230gallon tank with baffles installed for a little over $800. Is that what a 230 is worth? is that a good price?

:cool:

well, I'm living in a condo, not sure if it's wood construction or concrete, was a little weary about putting 3000 lbs of water in it lol. So I just bought a 120g perfecto tank at big al's. $350 was the price (sounded a lil nicer than $900 lol). The tank isn't drilled so I decided to be lazy and buy a hangon overflow, made by marineland - they told me this one works well.
