Looking for a new 50 gallon tank with the pump, filter, etc....don't care if acrylic or glass. Anyone got a feel for the cost of these items locally versus buying online or back in USE/europe?

Depends, salt or freshwater set up actually, either way here it's cheap... Say 8-10k max for top quality.. As low as 2-3 for not so great... Example I had a 500 gal saltwater built with all import ,filters, carbon and phosphate reactors, uv sterilizer, skimmer, mh lighting, ect done for 100 k about two years ago still no issues.. Check out siamreefclub.com has a lot of info on equipment ect also has an English froum

If you're in BKK, head over to the part of Chatachuk (sp?) Market across the street from the kid's museum. You'll find all your answers there....

there are some beautiful acrylic tanks at Chatuchak.

most everything to do with tanks and fish here are cheaper, unless you want to run a decent eheim filter or equivalent then you may want to look to ebay.
