Mr. Aqua and vendor backorders

moze229 · 07/17/2017, 10:55 AM

Hello everyone.

I was wondering if anyone had the inside scoop on why Mr. Aqua tanks seem to be on backorder everywhere. I've talked to a couple of vendors and they did verify that Mr. Aqua is still there and still taking orders, but almost everything is on backorder. Bulk Reef Supply seems to be the only vendor that has any of their tanks in stock right now (only a couple) and everything else is out of stock. I'm looking for the 18x18x18 cube. Just curious if anyone out there has heard anything.

No idea on MrAqua..

Try DeepBlue instead.. (they have 20x20x20 and 20x20x16 rimless)
No backorders there...

I'm not sure why they are backordered on everything, but Aquamaxx has a 17.8 x 17.8 x 17.8 low iron cube. I think marine depot has it free shipping.

Thanks. I was hoping to utilize the current stand I have, which is 19X20. The 20X20 won't fit.

Thanks solitude127 & fifthtoe. This tank is a little more expensive, but it is the low-iron version. I'll take a closer look!
