How much for 175g?

[StreetCypher]

How much would a setup like this be worth? Its in CAD not american dollars.

"GALLON 175 plexiglass custom aquar, 79"Lx22"Wx24"H, c/w overflow & bulkheads, no other acces $500"

I'm thinking $400? Its just a tank. I'd build the stand myself. I'd either go with 2 canisters (2 rena XP3s) and a HOB (AC 500). Or i might try a wet/dry. Or build my own sump. 175g tank would be quite heavy as well... I'd have to go under the house and reinforce the floor.

Yeah 2 canisters and a wet/dry would be perfect if you have messy fish. A 175gal would be 1400 when full. I keep my aquarium upstairs and there seems to be no problem.

so its about $300 americain?? If its new I think its a good price. It won't be as heavy as a glass tank so you and one other person can move it (I think).
The tank is about 180 gallons. I would also go with the wet/dry too.

Agreed. I think that is a good price. Go to www.glasscages.com and compare. Although their acrylic tanks don't go up that high, you can get an idea and also look at the glass tank pricing.
