Where can I find a tank like this?
 
Hi all,
I posted this question on nano-reef as well but I am trying to find a nano tank like the ones featured in the nano reef edition of coral magazine.
Here's one that's ok:

The one on the front cover is the one I really like (pictures pretty small though):

Any ideas where I should be looking? Thanks!

They are from 1 - 3 gallons and might not even be built to be aquaria. I just can't figure out where I would find something similar - too big to be vases ??

You might want to look at places like petcetera and wal-mart it kind of looks one of other those small acrylic tanks without the top.

Cool, thanks.

Funny,I was thinking about tiny tanks today and was thinking about using a large (gallon)glass jar for a nano.If you shop around,you'd be surprised what you can find very cheap.

That would look pretty neat too. I would really like to drill the bottom of whatever I use, is there a chance of drilling a jar like that, or is it impossible?

Well give it a try.Large glass jar cost almost nothing if you ask a local restraunt if they have any large empty glass jars(used for bulk pickles,etc.)I just pitched 2 very large jars when I moved :sad:

Sean,
I like it. Where did you get it?

Sean,

Are those goldfish in that little tank? If so, I'd like you to know that if kept properly, goldfish can grow to 12" in length and live 15 to 20 years.
