Default Aquarium purchase,s

Nice. Cant even purchase a standard 25g {16h} or 29g {18h}, in this city of a 100000. 29g kits available with minimum glass thickness. And of course only kits???????

Even in Brandon a city of 40000 we had a store that carried every size tank without the extra crap on them and for a decent price.

Nothing here? I think I have looked everywhere.

Been thinking about doing my own.

If I do a coast trip, then lots to choose from for sure. Idea is one should be able to buy local when a city is the size of Kamloops but seems not.

Have you asked Connie the owner of animal house on the north shore? I find they have really good prices most of their tanks. They most likely will not have one in stock, but they can bring one in for you. What brands make that size tank?

Yes, I go there regular. My 20g is from there and all our dog food. Just the usual kits in stock and not the same brand as my 20g, so the glass is about 2mm less for some reason, same as all the rest of the places.

I was going to order a Hagen 25g with no kit but they said yesterday, the next order is in 3 months. ???
