How much does that thing weigh? I'm guessing it's going to cost you more than $100 in shipping, via just normal airmail.
Has anyone here shipped an aquarium overseas before? How'd you guys do it? I'm thinking of sending a small OceanFree/similar tank(one of those with the curved front) to a friend in America. Is it advisable?

P.S. This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.

You need to pack it real well, with styrofoam and a sturdy box. The volume metric weight calculation does not mater if your tank is empty inside. The cost will be a killer.
Cheers,
I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?
The cost is a killer but the way it will be handle is more of a concern.

I was in the Post Office Q once and I saw a guy in front sending a crate of wine (6 bottles I think). Labels all over the paper and easily cost him close to $200!

If it's that Ocean Free bowfront one that comes with a cabinet, that's pretty heavy and needs careful packing. And I think the smallest is a 2ft.

FLORENCE, capital of the region of Tuscany, has a population of around half a million inhabitants, spreads on the banks of the Arno, between the Adriatic and the Tyrrhenian seas, almost in the middle of the Italian peninsula. It is a city which bustles with industry and craft, commerce and culture, art and science.
It's an OCean Free tank, but it's the 45cm one. It's amazing what those guys are willing to pay for one of these... I bought mine for SGD$12 and my friend's got people willing to pay up to US$40-50 for it.

You need a few labels such as 'This Way Up', 'Fragile' and 'Glass'.

Unlikely to be cost effective to mail just one tank.
