Need a Special Glass Tank Built

[K9coral]

Can some of you guys who are "in the know" send me links to websites where you can design your own aquarium? Or sites that sell odd shaped aquariums, looking for something tall and skinny. Thanks.

Just out of curiosity whats the tank for? Not much surface area for gas exchange. If you google your city and "glass" you can find all sorts of companies you never knew were there.

I just know a "little" about the hobby and a friend has an area in his house which is less than 15"x15" but it is over 10' tall and in a corner. He used to have a cheapo Walmart special made of plastic in the corner and he kept goldfish or sometype of fancy tail freshwater stuff. He just happened to ask about getting something tall and skinny made in glass that he could make it look a little nicer. I already tried the two glass companies in this area and they seem more concerned with smoking pot than doing their jobs... So who better to ask than reefs.com!

reefs.com what do they know lol.

I ordered mine from Aquarium Obsessed and they made a nice final product but I would order again from them. They took way to long, and had me send the drawings 3 or 4 times since they kept losing them. They got the overflow cut wrong but it still does what want. The tank is starfire front, external overflow, black silicon looks nice. http://www.aquariumobsessed.com/

Some poeple like http://www.glasscages.com some people hate them, they make a cheaper product for budget people.

I have heard nothing but good from people that were ablle to get tanks from AGE http://www.acrylicandglassexhibits.com/

You wanted glass only? There are also many places that do acrylic tanks like http://www.myreefcreations.com, I think B got his tank there and seems like it came out nice and he got it fast.

Cool, I will forward that info on to my friend and he can make up his mind! Thanks for the help though...

Ya. I can vouch for MRC. great work. they get it done in a reasonable time too. For acrylic jobs they are great.

DO NOT order from glass cages if you want something other than their stock sizes. They'll either screw up your tank, or screw you out of the tank. I got screwed both ways when I tried to order from them.
