Acrylic weight costing extra shipping price?

Yes, many places (dependent on the size of the tank) tend to just assemble it at its final destination (might be your house, or possibly a fish shop that can assemble it there) to save costs.

Acrylic is pretty heavy, but normally it’s the awkward sizing that makes it more pricey since it qualifies for bigger shipment costs based on size and weight.

Probably would be more cost effective to have it shipped in pieces, and then assembled locally.

Bought mine locally, so I have no idea.
