Custom tanks?
 
Hello,

For glass tanks, you can try Delta Aquatic Ltd. They are in Richmond, BC. What size and shape do you need? I'd imagine buying an existing common shape/size unit to be a lot cheaper.

Define decent price. I just received a 204g (72l x 30w x 22d) for $950 delivered. 2 8 x 8 overflows with 4 2 1/2 drilled holes from Wai's Aquarium here in Calgary.

Thanks for the info. I know of Delta Aquatics, but as far as I know they only deal with stores (I used to deal with them when I managed a Pet Habitat store).

I'm looking at a tank like 26"x24"x20" 52gal with 1 hole drilled in for sump plumbing.

I guess "decent price" would be something similar to a mass produced 55gal price range (around $100 or less I guess).

Mitch, that is a great price for custom work. I paid that for my 155gal tank.

PS: SOS, Seastar make custom tanks. You can order through J&L or anyone else for that matter.

Does anybody know of a place where I can get a custom all glass tank made for a decent price? Nothing fancy, it would just be a basic rectangular shape, but not dimensions available on the market as far as I know. Thanks [img]smile.gif[/img]

I just read a post on another board where someone bought a 220 gal reef-ready tank with a 55 gal sump/refugium for $1100 from this place. Inter-American

Don't be fooled by the name. The guy said the company is located in Calgary.

George that was most likely canadian.. inter-american is in Calgary, Alberta. they are (from what I have been reading) one of the better places to get tanks, price wise. The only problm I have heard with them is it takes a while for them to get the tank shipped, so if ou don't mind waiting a couple months check them out.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">The company's in Calgary, the guy who bought the tank lives in Ontario I think. The thread was a discussion about the costs of being a reefer in Canada, so I'm pretty sure the price he mentioned was Canadian dollars.

Have anybody ordered from Inter American? The prices on the web site are very reasonable especially if they are in Cdn funds.
