Guys, This is terrible news! I was very trouble to hear about what Tom was dealing with. Now to hear you've also had issues, tells me all I need to know about the company.
Just to be clear, Tom’s tank was built by Tenecor who is out of business now. My tank was built by a different acrylic fabricator and my issues with them have nothing to do with build quality. My tank is a beast. My issues were with them taking my money and then not delivering my tank in a timely fashion or communicating in any way for weeks at a time. Incredibly unprofessional. It’s detailed in the first post on my build thread if you want more info. Not worth rehashing further here. Tenecor was good to us for a while but Tom ended up with a substandard weld on his top and unfortunately they aren’t around to fix it anymore.
