Default New tank

I am buying a new system
300 - 350 gallon tank, sump, stand, installed

Looking for recommendations, glass or acrylic, not really worried.

I have lights, sand, rocks, heaters, skimmer etc.

Sorry I should clarify, I'm looking for someone to build and install at my house in St Albert, a 300-350 gallon reef system, would like a drilled system.
I don't mind whether it's glass or acrylic, would like the following though
Tank
Plumbing
ATO
Stand
Sump pump
Sump
Lights hanging

That's it really.

Or if anyone can suggest someone who builds/installs in Edmonton/st Albert that I can contact.

I have already been "duped" once so I am looking for someone who has a great reputation.

Red Coral 780-378-0076 and AI 780-483-7027 also do custom tank builds. I would phone around to all 3 stores and compare prices.

100%
I have already been "bitten" very hard and just conculded an action to get my money refunded that took 3 months, in the mean time I have fish living in a 90 that I would rather see in a 300-350.

I am looking for a company, not a private fish keeper, so I have warranty and some come back in the future, also I have another project that I am currently working on that will be a 2000 gallon shark tank (i have looked at Big Al's, its not quite 2000, but still a nice tank) I want to do both projects with the same aquarium builder/installer.

So food for thought

Call Aquarium Illusions, they do custom tanks and will do installations as well. If an on-site build is required that can also be arranged.

You bet I will.
I spoke to Joshua from Marine Aquaria this afternoon, top bloke, let's see what he can come up with for a price and date.

My fish in my 90 will be so happy in their new home !
