Tank stand.
Silly me bought a custom made 120 gallon tank,not thinking that i now need a custom stand.
If anyone has a nice wood stand for sale that would work for a tank exactly 24 inches,by 48 1/4 inches,please let me know. Thanks |

I really need one....would also consider paying someone to build me one,but im not going to pay the 1000 plus that the stores want for a cheap peice of junk that amounts to no more than a cupboard. Im pretty handy with building stuff too,but i couldnt finish it off nice enough for the front room of a house ,i need someone with more tools and more finishing know how. thanks |

Ive been interested in this hobby since i went snorkling in Aruba a few years ago and I am just starting to get into it now,i just have the tank done. But it seems to me that the local fish stores are never very busy and the mark up seems crazy. Im suprised that someone doesnt open up a store with lower prices working on volume,ie. build ten tanks at 200 dollars profit each instead of one at 500 bucks profit.Just a newbies view on it. |

unfortunately it doesnt work like that , from a business point of view theres alot more to consider like building maintanance,taxes,employees,merchandise,customer satisfaction,sueings,borders,shipping fees,building lease fees,etc. and the list is endless, all these have to be paid for from their products or services.ill admit i wish it was cheaper and some things seem way overpriced but as a customer i look at getting a deal, but as a business owner i look beyond what i see and whats in the bigger picture youd be surprised at how often an lfs will try to help you out regardless of how much money you have its the continuous business they want , well the good ones anyways try to buy from local reefers but remember this stuff doesnt grow here and it couldnt hurt to support your local fish store if there was ever a major problem you would be wise to have some friends in the business
