Okay so I am really new to vaping, and I'm looking for a good setup so far I have tried clearomizers, mini nova, nova v2.5, kangar t3, I have had no luck with them don't get me wrong there good but I feel like they can be better, and I placed a order for, kangar pro tank, nova v3, and vision ego v3, so I will so how that goes, but for now I'm looking around and see that there are tanks, and I want to know what is the best tank and are the ibtanked complete tanks any good, are amp tanks good, and are the vaper fexion pro v2 good, but most of all I want the best setup so you can put up anything you want and if it helps I have the vamo v2 and love it, thanks in advanced!
Best tank? Amp tank vs ibtanked vs vaper fexion

They are all good, depending on how much money you wish to spend. The Vaperfexion and IBT tanks work exactly same. However, I paid over $100.00 for a Pro V2 (included 2 extra PETG tube and 1 SS tube), while the IBT tank cost me $25.00.
With a standard cartomizer platform, the question is . . . How much are you willing to spend for the looks?
ETA: Any cartotanks ability to perform well is based on one thing. It's the cartomizer and how well it is prepared, prior to being installed into the tank. The tank simply holds the e juice.

Well I will spend whatever it takes to have a perfect setup, and yes I know cartotanks are only a part but its about a good 75% of it, and what cartomizers do you recommend
The OCD tanks from IBTanked are the best bang for the buck, especially in clear borosilicate glass. I like the stainless steel caps. IBTanked stocks all the replacement o-rings they use. My carto choice is in my signature.
I can agree with the above. I own the equivalent of a $100 cartotank pictured below. It is a self-matched hybrid tank using a pyrex glass tube from Phiniac and the endcaps from a Hoosier Vapes Elegance tank.
The above tank is a fine looking tank. Does it give me a better vaping experience than any of my seven $25 IBTanks? No it doesn't.
The keys to using a cartotank is using quality cartomizers, knowing and practicing the proper filling and assembly techniques, and the using the proper vaping techique for a cartotank.
If you can find them in stock, I recommend Ikenvape 510 Fusion or Ikenvape Platinum cartomizers for your cartotank. I also recommend getting the Slap Yo Moma tank accessory tool from Big Daddy Vapor. There is a PBusardo review and demo video of this tool in one of my blog articles.
I have no experience with the AMP tank to comment on that.
If you click on the "6" link by my Blog Entries under my avatar, you'll find several articles that I have written on cartomizers, cartotanks, etc that can add to your knowledge base prior to making your purchases.

Now when you say OCD, what dose that mean? And is that just out of there complete tanks section?
OCD is the online screen name for the glass expert at IBTanked. He's probably the most helpful and knowledgable tank vendor on ECF.
I'll vote Phiniac tanks, great thickness [watch the drop tests] extremely tight fit (only when they should be), [watch the pull test] besides price [are a little high] never heard one bad thing about them... At least it should go on your list
Wow! Everything on that site is free. No prices. I will take 50

I somehow managed to get a hairline crack in my Phiniac tank (the one pictured above) and it now leaks. Remember these pyrex tanks are glass and can break or crack despite the impressive demo videos on their website. My Phiniac did not receive any more drops than my other tanks, yet it is cracked and now is only a show tank.
Glass is glass, no one ever said that they won't break. Things happen, and can happen to ANYTHING. Just wanted to give another option, that wasn't listed in the title.
I know you will all think I'm crazy but I just love the cheap smoke tech tanks. I cut them down to fit boges. And I do think this one deserves an honorable mention. I have been using thest cheapies for over a year and have never even replaced an o ring. I love them. The only bad thing is that the cinnimon or citrus liquids can crack them but I never use those liquids so I'm golden.

Complete tank kits from IBTanked include a long aluminum drip tip that serves the same function as the Slap Yo Mama tool. It's bored out and can be used to blow out a flooded carto air passage. I'm using the Phiniac V2 carto punch and like it a lot.
I also forgot to mention that I went to change the carto in my friends Phiniac for her and I had to use pliers to get it out. I was afraid to pull so hard with it screwed onto her provari. That was the end of wanting a Phiniac for me.
I'm digging the fluid flask and hoping to get my hands on a Prive soon. I think the outer portion is mostly personal choice as long as it doesn't leak... Period!!!
I can't wait to drop the carto's and try something like a Diver or Killer 705. Best of both worlds, RBA meets Carto Tank.

I'm pretty new to vaping, currently have a Twist. I can't vouch for other cartotanks, but going from the T3 to a IBTanked set up was great for me! I'm very happy with the fit and finish, and it was much more easy to fill up and use than I thought. In fact, while the initial priming might take some of your time, the fill ups after that were much faster than with the T3. The T3 has to be unscrewed, flipped over and carefully filled. Whereas the cartotank from IBT has a long drip tip included in the kit which makes filling up a breeze, just slide up a bit, and fill up with juice along the drip tip and into the tank. All it needs is a little wipe down with a napkin and I'm set.
