You can also try Raf and Diana at Aquatic Escapes (Google it) they are from North Vancouver. I'm not sure where they get their tanks from.

Myka,

Do you have any experience of the tanks from aquatic escapes out of North Van? I've not heard of those guys before and just curious if it's worth a shot or just to go for a marineland (or other bulk manufactured) tank.

I've always liked the idea of a concept tank, but shipping from Calgary to Vancouver, if I remember rightly, is almost the same as the cost of the tank.

Thanks,
Dunc

They just order custom tanks from Concept and charge you a mark up. Lol.

actually I asked about shipping to Vancouver and you would be surprised about shipping, quite cheap

Sorry, I don't have any information about Aquatic Escapes. I can't vouch for them either - I've never seen their work. They used to be active on the forums here years ago, and I used to see Raf at J&L Aquatics going in for supplies when I worked there over 10 years ago. So they've been in business for at least 10 years, that's a good sign.
