Anybody have any experience with them?  Nature petstore in Montreal has a 10 foot, 313g tank which also comes with the canopy which 4 sets of lights and the stand with doors, etc.  The whole thing is going to $4K and right now they have no payments for 6 months and no taxes.  What you guys think?

I seen that tank, you need a big room for that one  ;)

I have seen the tanks as well - and I must admit they  - look - very nice - if they are the ones you are referring to. Rounded corner glass on the front corners? and I believe the filtration is built into the canopy. The stand also looked very nice, if you like a modern look. I did a little bit of research at the time - I remember they were made in China I think and what I was able to find was that quality wasn't that great - but the price point was. I believe these are distributed widely in places like Australia, UK. Search the net and I am sure you will find some info - I believe it is JEBO - one B in Jebo. And they make cannister filters and lighting that are pretty junky and don`t get the best reviews. Good luck.

This one did not have the filtration include for that I was looking at Fuval or Eheim.  Not sure might stick with the idea of the 210g I wanted but those extra 100g would be nice and my clown loaches would probably love the 10 feet of swimming space.

As mentioned the corners are rounded and in my head means less chance of a leak with less seems.  I am going to continue to do research and see what I come up with.  Wanted to see if anyone had purchased a smaller version in the past and what experience they had.

Nice size tank for the loaches, you want it secure to the floor though, torquing the tank while walking past it could be a concern. I'm sure it will be a lovely centrepiece in your room. You may want to put it in the room before the windows go in though, it'll be easier.

I think that would be pretty nifty to see that travelling down the highway on the roof of your car, take pictures.

Go over to www.cichlidforum.com and do a search on jebo - (do your search from the discussion page)- you'll see lots of poor write ups on differnt products of theirs - there is post titled "Odyssea aquariums" in the search - have a read - hope it helps. Good luck.
