Beautiful setup! I love the polished look...
Hi Folks,
Just bought 2 of the 4-feet x 2-feet x 1.5-feet 8mm tanks from Johor RM180 each.
Also had the stainless steel stand made for RM600.
Total is RM960 = S$400 approx.
As you can see from the photo, the tanks are braced at the top and bottom.
I intend to keep angelfish on top and goldfish below.

Want to learn more so that i can give back...
Hi everyone, thanks for the feedback.
I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the stainless steel stand.
The maker obviously is very experienced in making these beautiful stands for fish tanks.
I should have taken a photo of the stand before I put the fish tanks in - it looks really neat!
I will get the contact for the stand maker, and for the fish tank, from my Johor friend and post it here shortly.
I do not plan to have a planted tank because, as you can see in the photo, I already have lots of plants in the garden.

Any problem when you brought this in during custom?
You pay any tax?
Bringing the tanks and stand in from Johor, the Malaysia customs tried to "tax" us - how absurd!
Of course we did not pay.
As my JB friend was driving, we can bring in S$400 worth of goods without tax.
The 2 tanks and the stand were brought in 2 separate trips, so no GST in Singapore.
PS : In Pasir Ris Farmway, No. 63, there is a shop selling a similar setup but bigger,
2 of the 6-feet x 2.5-feet x 2-feet tanks with a stainless steel stand for $2500 includes delivery.
Was considering that, but that is too big for us.
hmmm, so we actually have to bring it over ourselves then? don't think I can ever bring this over to singapore unless I drive a lorry.
the stand really does look great!
Aside from the tanks, the stand is superb.
Fish.. Simply Irresistable
Back to Killies... slowly.
Very well made s/steel stand. Good deal..
Wow you transported it yourself? Very good deal.
I agree that stand looks very well made. Are those wooden planks or Styrofoam you're using to cushion the tanks?
Wonder how much it would cost to have it delivered to Singapore. Most of us don't have access to a van/lorry that can go to and fro across the causeway.
Hi Everyone, we transported them back in a SUV or MPV in separate trips.
Styrofoam was provided by the tank maker for cushioning.
Sorry for the delay in giving you the contact for the stand maker and tank maker.
My JB friend lost the contact, but he will go get it again.
I will post here as soon as I have it. Sorry about this.
looks huge...what's the dimension?

So sorry for the delay.
Here is the stainless steel stand manufacturer contact :
Techstel Products 07-3547885 Mobile 0197797163.
I believe the stainless steel is of a high grade quality. I got the information from one of my favourite LFS was that normally the local using low grade ones hence high chance corrosion for hollow rods.

I took a photo of my friend's stand yesterday - his is exactly the same as mine.
