We had order a Seapora tank, but there is fulfillment issues. The LFS offered us a Marineland tank of the same size, and I said yes due to time without properly looking them up. It’s a equal exchange on order, was it worth it?

I’m not too versed with either brands.. they’re both the same dimensions of what I want, but not sure how the quality is on the marine land?If I were you I'd hold off until you can get the tank you really want. If they can't offer a timeline on future fulfilment, get a refund and order somewhere else. In my opinion it's not worth settling for less than exactly what you want.
Do you think both are similar quality, or just know marineland are decent?They dont come drilled or anything but they're decent tanks.
Never heard of seapora tanks.Do you think both are similar quality, or just know marineland are decent?
I’ll have to look further, i appreciate your and everyone else’s input. The owner tried to play it off like I’m getting a steal (better quality / more expensive ) in exchange since they’re behind on the timeframe promised.I love my seaphora!! It is rimless version, they also have low iron ones I believe. I am not sure marineland makes rimless/low iron.
Marineland I think sometimes has clear silicone but others have black. My Seaphora has black, I believe they are all black.
FYi Seaphora = Deep Blue
I personally would not hesitate to buy Marineland either though, they are used a lot. I would just want to make sure it has what I want (black silicone, not sure if you did RR or not? etc).

I just know the seapora looked great, and that he thinks they’re discontinuing the marineland tank in my size - which has me questioning quality control?
You’re probably right, wouldn’t be selling so many of that brand if it was an actual issue. If they’re the same I rather not wait (for an unknown period of time), but probly no way of telling quality difference at the moment. Just wasn’t sure if maybe people were familiar with both.It's not a steal, cost should be close. It may just not be a popular size, who knows why they are discontinuing it.
I’m glad the marineland is lasting that long! Do their quality seem similar? I think I’m just being paranoid since the order changed and they tried to sell it like I was getting a better deal. I know the seapora looked quality seals but didn’t see the mainland in personMy 32 gallon marineland tank is built in 2006 (purchased in 2006 or 2007), I've been using it all this time sometimes as a freshwater tank and sometimes as a salt tank, it has survived 5 or 6 moves, and today it is my seahorse tank. I'd vouch for marineland tanks, whatever thats worth to you.
Seapora is also a good brand, I've had a few of their tanks over the years.
Whichever you choose, they are both good brands.
