Ordering a new tank....

Blindzy · Mar 24, 2026

Good morning all,
So I will be ordering a new 120 gallon reef ready tank. I have decided on a SCA with the starfire glass. My question is, has anyone ever ordered a tank from Walmart? They actually sell the SCA 120 I want and it is $200.00 cheaper than ordering direct. Also free shipping which saves a couple more $100.00. Anyone out there have any experience with ordering from Walmart?

THA!

I have an SCA tank that I ordered directly through them, and I had no issues.

However; I wouldn't hesitate to order through Walmart if that's an option. My suspicion is that Walmart will stand behind the sale with hardly any questions asked, which may give you a little more protection in the event something goes wrong. Bonus that it's cheaper too!

I agree, if it is cheaper to get through Walmart, I would go with them!

So here is what I will say.... I went with Walmart to order the tank... It is actually filled and shipped by SCA. I ordered it on 3/25 and was told 8 days shipping. As I type this on 4/22 I still have not received my new SCA aquarium. Looks like it has made it from California to Omaha. We will see how much longer it will take to get to Indiana :(. Not a happy camper....
