I have a 65G that has a 36x18 footprint and is 24 high... I got my stand made at B&B Pet Shop (through a local cabinet maker). The quality isn't what I would call "high", but the stand and canopy are "good" and they serve their purpose. :)

You can find these tanks "standard" if you look hard enough... I've never seen the stand "standard" though. Good luck!

if you get a price from B&B (not including there stand) i'll beat it.. a 55 gallon "tub" is 36x19x20 its a neat tank. not trying to be all competitive, but the owner of the store said if fish sells dont get any more higher, hes gonna shut the fish room down, which means im out of a job, so im just letting you know.plus id like to see the margin of sales increase a little bit so he will allow me to have a frag tank!

I have my heart set on a 55 gallon Uniquarium or equivalent but they cost $430 for the one I want shipped. I doubt I have much luck finding a used one in good shape. I am going to keep my hopes up and post a message on Reefcentral under wanted stuff. I don't need it tomorrow or anything so I can either look for a used one or save up my pennies. They are a small footprint of 3 foot length and it would be replacing one that I am not happy with at the moment.

I was doing a search for acrylic tanks on Ebay and saw the price on that one Sunday. I don't know it is kinda ugly if you ask me :cry:
