I have been waiting to get this tank from petsmart. I love the size and dimensions of this tank I have the perfect space for it. Here is the problem the reason for the wait is petsmart sold the tank I was going to buy just before I got there. They were supposed to have one on the truck this morning and well no dice. Now I am looking at having to wait until Tuesday and maybe they will have it. I have been trying to get this thing since Friday the 2nd The tank is on sale and I have been guaranteed the sale price of $112.49 I have the gravel, air pump, tubing, gang valves, undergravel filter and a few other things. All of which I can use on another tank. But should I wait or should I just find something else?
Here is the link for the tank.

Let me know what you think.
 
It really depends on what stock you want, but I wouldn't personally buy a tank with that small a foot print. I like more depth front to back.
 
Like I said I love the dimensions of that tank just not all of the waiting to get it. Do I wait it out or just start from scratch with different pieces?

I work at petsmart. You wont get it till Wednesday IF they ordered it. Tanks normally take 2 weeks for delivery when ordered. Its a nice tank and all but maybe try and go for something like the 36g bowfront. I can post a pic and tell them you want that price instead for it. Its one for 89.99 and its complete minus the stand

I had a deal like at my petsmart. If you signed up for petsplus or whatever you got 40% off a 36 gallon bowfront. I thought this was an excellent deal and now we have a 36 gallon bowfront. If the sale is more than $20 or 15% I would wait to get t. You can always ask an employee to reserve an aquarium for you.

No you cant. Ask for a rain check. No one is honestly gonna remember a guy asking for a tank to be saved because in my store on a slow day, we have atleast 1k different people a day

That tank looks awesome if it's the one I just saw, and yes I would love a picture! and the 30 inch length would fit perfect in my space. Although I think I am going to need the stand after taking the weight with the water in to account I think I will need a bit more support! I am just going to have to go down to petsmart and see what all they have in the store. I have been avoiding it since I went down only to find that, the tank I wanted was gone and it's an hour drive to Sioux Falls. That's our closest petsmart. With 4 kids 10, 8, 6, and 3 let's just say not always a fun trip!

The stand for this tank is 89.99 and I bought the tank for 89.99 tell them you want this price because you couldn't get the other

That's the tank I got. I am very happy with it. The heater works well and the filter is super quiet.

Yeah the heater is a pretty decent heater. Im not a fan of the filter. I paid 238.00 for my tank stand a new filter master test kit and prime
