Custom Aquariums?

[druidx]

Hi,

Is anyone here aware of any custom aquarium manufacturers in NY? I am looking to get a 24"x24" cube preferably rimless.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
--Joe

oh, there's an aquarium store out in brooklyn that makes custom tanks. I've never bought one from them, so I can't say about quality.

I think it's brooklyn zoo and aquarium

im on the fence about ordering from glass cages...... and not sure I want an acrylic tank so im kinda limited as to where I can get a tank. I thought about building my own tank too but don't know if I could sleep at night :splitspin

bad coffee........ how did you get hosed?

their seams suck and not that clean if you want a more designed tank they will mess something up nd tell you take it or not aND YOU WONT GET ANOTHER THATS HOW

you can't beat their price's is why, over all i am happy with my tank and it's 1\2 the price of anyone else, would never do a acrylic tank again myself, scratch's to easy, but the benifit is it's alot lighter and you can fix the scratch

Joe, why not check out one of our vendors? Rich from Corals Mania does some really good acrylic work... He is currently working on his build so you may be able to get look at a build in process.

If you're interested in an All In One (Solana) we have them. They are 20" x 20" and made of glass.

If you don't want an All In One, we also carry the Oceanic 30g cube. It measures L 20.5 x W 21 x H 18.5 (pretty close to a cube in my book )
