ackattackkk Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 So once I get into the new house im looking to upgrade tanks to a 60g or 80g shallow. Just a question whats the difference in these tanks, why is one 150$ cheaper 60G Shallow Deep Blue 60g Shallow (*edit* had the wrong link) Link to comment
charnelhouse Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Looks like no overflow kit on the Nautilus to me. Link to comment
ackattackkk Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 Looks like no overflow kit on the Nautilus to me. I thought that too. but if you look in the second picture in the left top corner it kinda looks like theres a curved black piece sticking out of the water Link to comment
itzju Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 the description states reef ready and that usually means it has an overflow. for that price. thats not bad at all. shipping might kill you though. Link to comment

Steensj2004 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Both Clearly say reef ready. Why the price difference I am not sure, you can always contact both and ask specifics. Pay with pay pal and save the emails back and forth. If it is different then they claimed, get a refund. Link to comment

I just wasnt sure if nautilus reef ready meant it was already drilled and didnt come with plumbing. I know deep blue reef ready means it comes with plumbing and everything Link to comment

General consensus is that the included bulkheads and components are crud. GOOD LUCK! Link to comment
SiRhk Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 If you find out about the shipping of the nautilus let us know. Link to comment
1.0reef Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 For me (CA) shipping on the Nautilus was $340, Deep Blue was $212, however the Nautilus is $20 cheaper in the total price ($540 vs $560) but I've never heard of the company. Link to comment
