    [face="Verdana"]Love the look of their tanks, but they had no pricing info on their website, so I emailed them.  I knew they were probably really expensive since they had no pricing readily available, but I figured it doesn't hurt to ask......  Here is the reply:

    Yeah, I think that's about the only way I'll be getting a tank like that /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/biggrin.gif  Short of winning the lottery.........

    ORA did have a pretty awesome tank at MACNA! That's what I'd go for.

    First, I question their technique. From all I've read, making a rimless tank that tall out of 3/4" acrylic is going to result in a lot of deflection over time. I would have it made out of 1" for that price.

    But for the record, you do get the stand (which is probably metal with wood casing) which is probably a good chunk of change. But for the tank itself, I betcha I could make one a LOT cheaper...then spend about a day polishing all the edges to look all pretty like theirs - which is actually quite laborious, and probably much of what you're paying for. Then you could have Craig make you a snazzy stand and yeah...
