They probably have them at the locations but not on the website cause they wont ship them.
Are you close by them?
Yeah, there is one in Vancouver only about an hour from my house. They are not listed online, buy in store only. I know something about Hagens, All glass\and oceanic, but i dont know squat about perfecto? Are they made cheaply ...i dont want to buy a big tank ( 90-130g) and buy crap.??

If they are the ones with the anchor logo on them ........... then thats what my 100 gallon is ........... and i have no complaints at all.
Heres a link to a site with aquarium charts including perfectos if its useful to you.
Manufacturers links on the right.

Thanks Cage, that is a great link for viewing different tanks and makes.

Perfectos are the ones with anchors on them.
Perfecto is now owned by Marineland (Magnums/Bio-Wheel/Penguin/visi-therm). I have owned Perfecto tanks over the years and they were OK. Never had a leaker, but they never offered drilled tanks or built in overflows until just recently.
They kind of reminded me of General Motors, always a few years behind the most recent developments, but still making a decent product.
They now offer drilled tanks with built in overflows, many years after All-Glass and Oceanic started doing this. I have a 265 gallon Marineland/Perfecto and I like it very much. As a matter of fact, if you slapped an Oceanic label on it I wouldn't know the difference. They are starting to offer some furniture quality stands as well. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them.

My 100 gallon perfecto is an older one ..... not sure of the age tho (bought it used).
I just also picked up an all glass 55 thats dated 1998 i believe .............. and at the corners it has a wide strip of silicone on each side of the joint and it looks terrible IMO. My pefecto has real clean looking seams and looks fantastic.
But as i said they are both older tanks so quality may have changed.
Perfecto has been around a long time. I think the quality is as good if not better then allglass.
Thanks Guys for the tips. I ended up going with a 125g All Glass tank and an
oceanic stand....pick it up Friday. cant wait....
Sincerely, Chris
Congrats Chris ........... Im sure you'll be very happy with the nice large tank to provide even more room for more discus.
