Check out Progressive Marine... there's a few threads about then under the vendor recommendations and vendors only areas on this forum.

There are a few in pensacola. I'm not sure what you measure of good is but I'm not a big fan of waterworld.

Others in town are Aquaria, Aquaworks, Reef Scapes and Reefers if reefers is even still open.

well waterworld has nice stuff, but for me I can find it somewhere else for as low as half the price. I recently bought a Blue Jaw trigger from aquaworks and it was extremely nice. I paid $49 for it and Waterworld had one in for $99. The one they had was probably an inch bigger but that still doesn't justify the price. I bought about 4 fish from them over the past 3 yrs and all died but one within a few days.

The others I mentioned are hit or miss as to when they order stuff.

Progressive Marine may be able to get them i would ask. It would cost you an arm and a leg to get it from B&B. Or you could always just order one but then you have to pay shipping.

Ebay or Dr.s' foster & smith would be my guess if you can't get them local.

I have 3 sizes in stock. 13 gal, 10 gal, 8 gal. I think they start at 39.99 for the tank and the glass top.I can give you exact price when I'm at the shop.

Stop by and take a look at them and if you want something diffrent i can order you whatcha want.

Lately I have read alot on heat issues with the nanocube from jbj. Even the fancy one with pc lighting and the built in fans. I think they have 12 and 24 gallon sizes..

Yeah the deluxe model with two lights probably would cook the fish, not need really.

I buddy has the one with two lights and had temp swings like you wouldn't believe. Maybe 6-8 degrees. I even has fans built in the hood.
