Any suggestions for a good, possibly a steal aquarium to buy with a stand, but with none of the parts?

I dont really need anything like filters lights heaters as I already have everything I need, but I am looking to buy a new tank and wanted to hear your thoughts on anything I might be missing out on.

There is some 83g deal that’s been posted a bunch on here for 1600 shipped?

Most aquariums don’t come with lights or filters. Just tank, stand, maybe a sump, plumbing.

I mean, what's your budget, what volume are you considering, do you want glass or acrylic, what type of overflow do you want, do you want a long, skinny tank, or a short, wide tank? Without much to go on, we'd just be guessing.

I remembered that SC Aquariums does a "deal of the month", and right now it's this tank. I'm not endorsing SC Aquariums, I do have one of their 55 gallons with what looks to be the same type of internal overflow (I got my tank used), and I personally don't care for it. I'm considering a new tank myself, and I want an external overflow, and one with three drains for a Bean Animal style overflow. But if you like this tank, this looks like a decent price. It does not have a stand, but if you can make one or have one made for you locally, this might not be a bad deal for the tank:

I'm tagging along as I'm also considering a new tank, and interested to see if anyone has any ideas.

Good luck!

Go with an All-In-One. It’s easy to access your filters, minimalistic, and you don’t have to worry about a sump for large equipment

Good suggestion of a tank brand, they seem to have tanks for all budgets
