So sorry to hear that for you Mike. I do hope all will survive this terrible disaster. Thats not the first Oceanic tank I've heard that started leaking.
I'm planning a 450. I want glass, but it's stories like this that makes me decide on Acrylic for the new tank. Again keep us all posted. We wish the best for all of your live stock.

Well said, Fonda, & of course, Mike all of us have grown together with ZEOvit, understand your concern. keep us updated with how Oceanic response. Do you use a Oceanic stand? Thnx. Bob

my next tank will be acrylic..i canot tank chance anymore...i was so upset last nite,my gf tough i will have a hard attack...

[Aged Salt]

Mike, do you need a Valium? My question regarding the stand evolves around the fact that, this factor may be Oceanic's out for not covering their tank warrantyBob

[mshur]

bob, i feel like i need one))
and u right,i just spoke with algaeman,he said if i didnt use oceanic stand i am out of warranty((

sorry mike, that just sucks, i hear more and more oceanic fail, i thought oceanic is the way to go?

[mshur]

thank you guys...

[Aged Salt]

Hi Heinz, I believe Oceanic was taken over by another co??? Quality may have suffered with consolidation. Bob

[Heinz]

Hi Bob, ah i see, that could be the reason, i didnt know oceanic was taken over

Oceanic is owned by the same company that owns All Glass. They also own Kent Marine, T.F.H. Publications, Inc. and Energy Savers Unlimited. This and a long list of other pet supply and garden supply companies.
These companies are all under the roof of a wholesale distibution company listed on NASDAQ.
