Wow! your lfs selling 400 gallon tanks (tank [no stand or

around 400.00 depending on brand and model.

If they had tanks at that kind of markup, they would not sell. Tanks
are usually marked up very low.
Not from what I've seen. Freight would run about $400 on a 120g tank,
and it seems to be about half price. $1300 vrs. $2500 (or higher).
There's also a person that builds them from scratch in my area. They
are easily half price the LFS.
I imagine that competition will drive down prices, but LFS here has a
near monopoly.
