Well here is the situation. There is nothing we can do concerning the Stand and the Canopy, that is based solely on the price we pay for it and the mark up that we do, which isn't much. Selling stands, tanks and thing do not make the store much money because of the low markup we do for them. However, if you bought all the filters, substrate and such there, (BTW I have her looking for some more advanced T-5 systems as well) we might be able to give you a discount on all those items depending on what you get. Sorry I couldn't do to much more than that. Oh and the price for the 125 gal is 387 now after the recent increase in prices. I tried my best.
