"Perfect in almost every way."
All of my tanks are all glass aquariums. I have had a 45 gallon tall running for 12 years. Never leaked a drop. I will say that the cheaper particle board stands are not the way to go as accidents happen and equipment fails and these stands will not tolerate any water at all. But their heavier pine stands are incredible as one has never failed me.I have 10 of them over 55 gallons and 30+ 20 gallon tanks only ever had 1 problem and it was not the manufacturers fault. I cracked it.

"they dont back up their products like said before"
do not waste your money

I recently bought 2 all glass (Now Aqueon)24" strip lights with in a couple months one doesnt work and less than a year later the other one burns out brand new bulbs! they are the kind that are automatic start and I wouldn't reccomend anyone waste their money on them.
When i contacted them they wouldnt even talk to me cuz i didnt have a receipt. All I wanted was lights that work and they can't provide that.

"they do not back up their products"
Less then 1 1/2 years ago I bought a 180 gallon set-up with "furnature" quality stand and canopy, te stand and canopy are falling apart (would be glad to e-mail pictures to anyone who would like to see them) the tank's overflows have the sealent coming off. All they can say is it's out of warrenty and refuse to do anything about it, and I'm the proud owner of a $3,ooo set-up that isn't worth #$@%

"Solid tanks"
I have 3 AGA tanks. A 20 tall that I have had for over 15 years, two 54 corners for 1-2 years. Both large tanks are on AGA stands. No problems, and they have all been moved several times.

"Biggest Disaster Ever"
less than 3 months after buying it, leak. Not a tiny little spray leak either... 60 gallons in 20 minutes drained... It's not even OLD! I just bought it. I'll have to see how well they take-care of me now that my tank is ruined. What are they going to replace? My 3d background which is siliconed on there? My opinion (which will never be very high of them again) is tipping between "fine" and "pile of $***" depending on how well they honour their warranty.

edit: it's a "pile of $***". They can't do anything for me they say. I say: "You can't send a check in the mail for the cost of my ruined background and rocks if I send you a reciept for it?"

It's not my fault I need to throw this stuff out. I didn't ship out a defective product. But I have to pay for damages because I was "stupid" enough to buy there unmarked, defective product. Give me a BREAK.


EDIT: second one cracked... The stand is good, just poor quality tank

"13 years...no issues"
I bought my 75-gallon new from my LFS in early 1994, and have run it everyday since. Minor gravel scratches on it...no leaks.

Its been moved 5 times, up and down stairs each move. Left 75lbs of wet gravel in it on the first 4 moves. Still no leaks.

I can find cheaper tanks, but I wonder if they would have leaked after all this time and through all the moves.

"It's a tank"
I have the 75E. The "E" stands for "economy." I have had no problems, but the sealing was not as neat as I would have expected and have seen on other AGA tanks.

Some AGA tanks, like the 75E, have a tempered bottom. It's a lot lighter than the 75 with the regular annealed glass bottom BUT you can't drill it. Tempered glass is a lot stronger than annealed glass of the same thickness against blunt trauma (and therefore can sustain more weight if used as a bottom), but if poked hard enough with a sharp instrument will shatter into a million pieces. Annealed glass would crack and leak but not fail like that. There is such a thing as "delayed catastrophic failure" of tempered glass from some latent flaw or previous sharp trauma which I believe is what a previous commentator (Trammel) suffered.

"Not a Problem So Far"
I've had two AGA tanks for approximately three years now. So far I haven't had one leak and not one crack. I hope they'll continue this way for many years to come. Planning on getting a third AGA tank.

"All I'll ever buy"
I've had a 55 Gallon all-Glass for 9 Years. I had tropical fish in it for three then it housed a Ball Python for 5 years and now I've converted it back to a cichlid tank. Never had any problems with it what so ever. I just recently bought a new 20 gallon tank for a second aquarium and I'm planning on purchasing my showpiece 210 gallon tank from all glass this year. I think they make a great product at very resonable prices.

"Tank Leaks after 2 years!!!"
I guess we got a defect, after only having the 65 gallon all-glass tank for exactly 2 years and 2 months, they will not offer any customer care. Pretty sad in my opinion. They are inexpensive, but would pay a little more for higher quality.

"These tanks rock!"
I've owned 3 of these tanks. One of them was a 10 gallon that I had for about 6 years. One day I was cleaning it and suddenly, it slipped out of my hands, fell on the concrete stairs, and chipped one of the edges. "Oh no", I screamed! I put some water in the tank and behold! It still held the water! It worked perfectly fine for the next 4 years. Then towards the end of the 6 years, I was cleaning the tank once again and this time is slipped, hit the floor, and completely cracked, rendering the tank useless. I seem to have butter fingers. (^_^; ) Well, it would have still been with me today if that hadn't happened.

Now I have another 10 gallon for a Moray Eel and a 55 gallon from the Cichlids from All Glass Aquarium. They're excellent tanks. Yes. ( ^_^)

""
Puchased a 75 gal set from the local pet store. I had it up for bout 3 months and Mothers Day morning the bottom let go. It never leaked or cracked, it just went! All over the floor.
Called customer support and the person told me they were aware of some tanks letting loose like that. They say it's a flaw in the glass and they have no real way of fixing it. So I guess 1 out of a 100 do it?
