    Hi,

    I stumbled upon this site when I was searching the web for where I can get a cheap standard 3 feet tank without cabinet.

    I am considering a tank with rounded edge in front. I went to Serangoon North pet shop, is there anywhere else i can try?

    Thanks in advance.

    If you are looking for a cheap new standard one can try Toa Payoh lor 5 blk 72. Cant remember the name but there's only one pet shop there. Only $75. Throw in another $75 for a wrought iron stand all brand new excluding delivery.

    Yes. Only one pet shop there. Local lfs and they do grooming for dogs also. Fishes sold there nothing to shout about just basic fish for beginners but hardware like tanks and pumps and lights are cheap.

    Re: Buying a new 3 feet tank

    Serangoon sells the 3 feet tank with rounded edge for $168 but cost another $60 for transport. Owner said it is imported from Germany and uses green technology where it is more resistant for algae to grow on.

    But don't know how to tell it apart from china made ones because there is no marking on tank.

    Anyway, I don't mind even if china made. I just want to check if I can get it at better price, if not I will go ahead. I will try sea view jalan kayu. Thanks

    If anyone else know where else sells the rounded edge tanks, please let me know too thanks!

    By the way, once my 3 feet tank is set up, I can give away my 2 tier 2 feet tank with stand... Will put up separate post later on this, to see if anyone is interested.

    Went into Robert's blog and boy, I love the planted tanks setup!

    "Green" technology? That sounds interesting? Absolutely no way to discern the brand/model of the tank?

    Hi all just an update on pet shop at Toa Payoah. The actual address is AG pets Toa Payoh, 01-367 Toa Payoh lor 4 blk 69. Just went there to buy some fbw. Price update for 3ft std tank (3 x 1.5 x 1.5) $70. 2 tier 3ft stand $85. My apologies if bros went on a wild goose chase to find shop. I don't have any vested interest in shop, just another source for cheap hardware for bros here.
