no no just looking through build threads I have seen the prices ranges, I was talking about elite that I got the crap service from.

It's sad that your experience at Elite was so bad as the tank I got there from Jay is beyond anything I could have hoped for. The sump is awesome! Now I just got to get it all going...lol.

Im pretty picky when it comes to customer service and when I get a bad experience right away it shows to me there not worth my time no matter how good his tanks might look.

Jay != Colby.

I'm pretty sure you can deal directly with him if you want to these days. Jay's a good guy and does care.

+1, Colby is out of the picture now anyways. I would give Jay a chance.

I myself would never deal with Colby again, even if he was in the biz still. But I would diffinately try to deal with Jay again. He does build an awesome tank, and mine is from him.

I would suggest trying to see tanks. I myself would offer my tank so you can see Jay's work, maybe others can offer theirs to view also. Then you can make an educated choice.

Happy Holiday's Everyone!!!

I have seen some work from bow valley, I have seen a tank built from jay and I have seen a bunch that red coral has made, also saw a tank that Wai's built and they look great..

I have to admit Wai's quality on the edges wasnt as great as others and he mentioned that himself that buffing the edges costs more and takes more time i understand that. I actually have a 35gal tank that bow valley built and I noticed the glass is a little over kill on it, in fact my power heads magnets dont have a lot of strength through it..guess thats what happens on 1/2" thick glass, the edges though look fine sure theres a few burs on the edge but nothing major.
