Not sure where I should post this - so I decided here !
Look to purchase an upgrade - thinking 72"x30"x24".
Been trying to deal with Concept , getting a little frustrated . Everything seems to take forever . Not trying to **** anyone off but damm.
So , is there any other custom aquarium builders ???
If there is , please let me know quality . I don't mind waiting if the quality is there !!!
Thanks Mark

Is it normal to be told : I'll change the initial drawing & get back to you in a day or 2 , then after 4 days try & contact someone & it still takes days for them to respond.
Just curious , I know they're probably busy but I'm willing to spend thousands of $ with them & not feeling too confident with the company so far.
I'd say communication is probably Concept's biggest weakness/flaw. It's annoying as a customer. Call him instead of emailing him.

No long distance phone plan . $.50 a minute . I'm trying to text back & forth . Talked once.

Delta aquatics makes them also. I've had basic ones built by them before. Not sure if they would do anything more adventurous?

I think H2O is still on the west coast...J&L used to use them. Concepts tanks are much nicer though.

Thousands on a tank but you feel paying long distance to actually talk to someone is to much ? Im confused

Finally got a hold of them & finalized tank order.
Now I guess I should start a tank journal !
Thanks for the input.
