Hi!
My turtles have grown a lot and I need to get a new tank and basking area, but I have trouble finding good turtle tanks. I looked at glasscages.com, but they are far from Philly and delivery is pricey. Any ideas on where to buy turtle tanks (large ones)?

Thank you!
Irina

+2 for craigslist.

Also, check out if there is a local fish reefing forum for your area. They usually have a classified section. That's where I got my 75 gal.

Are you looking for NEW or is used alright?

Craigslist is online free classifieds You can find some great stuff at cheap prices in your area: http://www.craigslist.org/about/sites

Kijiji is pretty much the same but seems to be BIG here in canada apposed to craigslist. http://www.kijiji.com/

You can get a stock tank from a farm store. They aren't very expensive, and can last a really long time.

Craigslist is wonderful though.
