Marc.The.Shark Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Sweet, thanks! I need a 10 gal for a sump. Link to comment
braaap Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Starts this Sunday. How do you know? It just ended alittle over a month ago and one of the members of my local club(petco manager) said it isn't happening again for 2-3 months. Link to comment
Hig789 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I assume this doesn't include drilled tanks. We don't have a petco here but we will be in FL near one next week. Link to comment
kimberbee Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Does every Petco across the nation do it at the same time? Link to comment

You can't drill any of the tanks Petco carries anymore. It is only on their basic line which is Aqueon. Does every Petco across the nation do it at the same time? From what I know yes.

It is unfortunate that they are no longer drillable tanks and the glass thickness has decreased. Link to comment
clink51 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Nice. It is unfortunate that they are no longer drillable tanks and the glass thickness has decreased. true but these tanks are really only used as sumps for us at this point anyway Link to comment
braaap Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 true but these tanks are really only used as sumps for us at this point anyway Ya now. haha. The 40 breeders used to make great tanks when this sale came along. Link to comment
kimberbee Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Ya now. haha. The 40 breeders used to make great tanks when this sale came along. So are these not the best to be used as a main tank anymore? Was hoping for a nice cheap upgrade in another few months... Link to comment
braaap Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 So are these not the best to be used as a main tank anymore? Was hoping for a nice cheap upgrade in another few months... As long as you aren't drilling them they seem to be ok. The silicone is sloppy and the glass thickness has decreased. Just cherry pick the one you want and you should be good. Link to comment
Kimosobey Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Dang it! I was hoping to pick up a 20 gallon long and drilling it for a simple setup with a 10 gallon sump Link to comment
braaap Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Dang it! I was hoping to pick up a 20 gallon long and drilling it for a simple setup with a 10 gallon sump You MIGHT be able to drill the backs. It is hit or miss from what I hear. I was exploring it before I ordered my tank. Bottoms are for sure a no go. Link to comment
