I love these IBTanked designs. They are slimmer and I think 3ml. My pics don't to them justice so here are some pics from their website. I couldn't find the one I bought that is on my blue IPRO but it is so much nicer in person. It has this really cool swirly blue, green and yellow pattern.

The flower one has purple and yellow flowers also that go almost all the way around. The colors are much more vibrant than shown in the pic. It is beautiful. I love these different tanks. Getting tired of the same old ones being offered. It's nice to see something new. These are nice quality, good pricing, you do have to remember to add end caps if you want them, great cs and quick shipping. I will definitely be looking for future designs.

I found the pic of the green/blue/yellow I tried to explain. It's really pretty!

I'm very interested in the IBTanked tanks because of the hand made quality. Very nice!

Are these the correct size for the XL cartos, or are they meant for standard size?

Got the OCD Tank in from IBTanked today. Looks great on my chrome ProVari and works as it should so far. I'll post more pics and additional feedback soon once I put it through the paces.

I didn't notice that one. I have to place another order and think I'll get one of those also. I've seen people add sticker decals which might but fun to try on this also.

Yes, XL fits great. I just put on XL 801 Fusion on the mottled one onto my blue IPro and it looks fab!

I ordered a plain one the other day and they are really cheap. I like your mottled one. I plan on using XL 801 fusions in it. Fusions are my faves.

Did you remember to get the end caps? I tried various other caps but none would fit so I had to go back and order another set today - FYI. I suggested she offer other options for people who don't want to spend so much money but don't know if that is possible. Has anyone found any other caps that fit these?

I ordered the end caps and O rings from them and it was still only like $27. Compared to Phiniac, that is really low.

I tried to order a clear tank from IBTanked this weekend, but for some reason it wouldn't accept my credit card. I order online all the time and its never been an issue.

I have a Pro V cartomator pre-ordered for my next purchase, one of the new color Provari's. The tank looks awesome on a Provari, with similar dimples on the end caps. However, it uses a polycarbonate tube, which I'm really trying to get away from. I was hoping that just maybe the IBTanked glass tube would match up.

I got the Siam Mods pyrex tank (my first glass tank) and it matches perfectly with my ProVari. Clouds of Vapor sells the tanks and the end caps separate, so you can mix and match as you like:

Steel End Caps

Real Titanium End Caps

Siam Mods - Glass Tanks

Oh yikes, thank you, dlsw, and sorry for behaving like my lighter haired sister... It was the e liquid that made me think it was a different tank!

D'oh!!!

I'm tryin' not to be a bad blonde influence on you, but apparently, blonde is catchy.

That was my concern with the cartomator also. I've ordered from IBT twice but I used paypal with no problems. Didn't bother trying with a cc.

BuGlen, How well did your caps fit the Siam glass tank?
I got the cobalt glass tube and the SS caps; the caps fit really ( really, really ) tight on the carto, but are so loose on the
tube, it was a problem filling the tank.

I got the clear XL size tank and the caps fit snug. Not as tight as my SS caps on my Phiniac tank, but tight enough where they don't come out without a bit of effort.
