wegotjs Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I just wanted to mention this for anyone that is looking to purchase a new glass tank. Animal House in Oregon city is having there 25th anv. sale for one day only (oct 6th sat) . They are having sales on a few things but I was told by there fish manager that they are bringing a truckload of tanks & stands just for that day.He said the prices that day are below what they buy them from( you will be buying direct from manufacturer ). I don't remember all the prices but 120's were like $199 w/overflow $250 . 210's were normaly $799 but are on sale for $450. I don't know how good of deal's these are but I wanted to throw it out to anybody that might be looking. Stand's were half price also and they had all sizes tanks between 75-210.

defigart Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I hope I get my bonus by then. Would love a 210, and you CAN NOT beat that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyles Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 are these AGA or perfecto? I have been shopping everywhere for a 180 w/ overflows and a stand at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsoz Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I got an AGA from animal house in Oregon City a couple of months ago (75g for $99). Now I may be able to afford to get a stand if they are half price or less (normally $250). I wonder if I can fit my 45g long in the bottom of the stand for a sump... I may need to wait for the next petco sale to get a 40b. That is unless Animal House is going to have the 40b on sale also. I may need to look into this. dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayR Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Sweet, I've been planning on a 210 & for $450 that is a good deal. Thanks for posting. Does anyone know if this shop deals with AGA? Since I think AGA are really good quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsoz Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 They are AGA. If they don't have it in the store, ask to order one at the listed price and you can pick it up later. I was just in the store talking to the manager, and the fish "expert." I was scouting out the deals. I am going to be picking up a pine stand from AGA to fit the 75g that I got there a little more than a month ago. The price on the stand is normally $250, and it will be $159.99 for one day October 6. dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-3 Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 So are these all the old All glass tanks that were made before the switch to Aqueoksn? Dsoz- Is it just AGA tanks? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayR Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Does anyone know if AGA can custom drill holes for the tank you purchase? Or doe they only sell the Reef Ready tanks only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsoz Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 R-3 I don't know if it is ONLY AGA, but it is for many large (over 75g) tanks and stands. the phone number for animal house is (503) 657-0307 (from DEXonline.com). Call them for prices. jayR- I don't know if they are including reef ready tanks. The tank I got from them (and the ones that I saw stacked up in the store) are 75g glass boxes. I was able to drill holes in the back (the bottom is tempered on the 75g). All it takes is a glass hole saw. Many people in this club have them (and will loan them). It was a piece of cake to cut the holes myself. dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayR Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Called and confirmed that it will be AGA tanks only. They also have free hotdogs from 12-3pm. :D Sale starts 11am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhuru Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Is this store connected with the Animal House here in Corvallis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsoz Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 They open at 10:00, I am going to be there for a stand at 9:45. Be warned that if they don't have it in stock, you may need to order it at the sale price and pick it up another day when it arrives. They have three stands that would work for me (two painted black and one natural pine) in the store right now, and the manager said that he could let me take it home at purchase (if there is still one left at that time). dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about the others in the state. dsoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SATURDAY OCT. 6th ANIMAl HOUSE Oregon City Gallon $SalePrice reg ------------------------------------- 75 89.99 -- 159.99 All these tanks have the black trim and no overflow 90 149.99 -- 259.99 If you want a overflow add $50 to the price. 120 249.99 -- 399.99 ONLY THESE TANKS WILL BE THERE ON SAT. 125 199.99 -- 349.99 180 419.99 -- 699.99 210 450.00 -- 750.00 125 megaflow 249.99 -- 399.99 w/th overflow There is going to only be one each of the big tanks and more of the smallers. The reason is that they are worried if they bring in three 210 they will have to pay to ship them back.I don't think there will be any custom orders for extra custom overflows but I don't know for sure.If you are the first person here you get to take the tank home with you, if not they will give you a rain chack and you can pick it up on the next thursday from their store. I was told if you want a overflow it was going to be about $50 more and you would have to pick it up on the thursday. Most of the Stands will also have to be ordered. He showed me the pics and they were very nice They gave two price examples on stands 18x48 Black pine stand $sale 159.99 Reg 299.99 24x48 black pine $sale 199.99 Reg 399.99 All of the tanks will be AGA they are not sure if they will carry the new brand name or not. Again this is what I was told and i'm just trying to help everyone out.Don't yell at me if there is some mistake or the tank you wanted is sold.

jayR Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I think for an extra $50 for megaflows is a good deal. Does anyone know what size bulkheads are needed for the megaflows (210gallon size)? I think i read somewhere it was 1" drain & 3/4" return for each mega flow. Can someone confirm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyles Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 The bulkheads come with the megaflow kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayR Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 thanks nyles. Do you know if the tank will come with the bulkheads installed? I assume it doesn't since the kit says it comes with the bulkheads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyles Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 That tanks magaflow baffles will be siliconed in and holes drilled, you install bulkheads and durso and flex return, the kit is just dropped in a box, but very simple to install.

Ronjunior Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 So did anybody jump on the 210 gallon? Boy was it tempting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayR Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I got a 210 but it was the one with the dual megaflows. Will be starting a thread on it. It will be an Inwall setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronjunior Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 You're existing tank looks awesome, was checking your pictures after I got nice frag of your frogspawn. My wife loves LPS's. Can't wait to see what you can do with a 210! Are you keeping both, or swapping out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayR Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 You must be thinking of another member, I just moved here from California. I did have a pretty decent reef tank, but will probably go with FOWLR this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
