Acrylic Aquarium Sellers

[Biokabe]

I'm currently in the market for a 75-90 gallon, 4' long acrylic tank. Turnaround time is very important here, as I just noticed some seam damage on my Reefer 350 and time is ticking. I don't think it's an imminent failure, as it doesn't seem to be the normal seam failure on the front panel that goes downhill rapidly, but I'd rather get a replacement sooner rather than later.

I've already reached out to Glass Cages, Tsunami, Clear Fabrications, and Midwest Customs. Does anyone know of any other suppliers? Preferably if they have any pre-built tanks, though that seems to not really be a thing with acrylic tanks.

I can go glass if I really need to, but I've been wanting to go acrylic for my next tank anyhow and would prefer to go that route.

I'll send them a message. I did come across them earlier, but their tanks are a bit wider than my stand is built for, so I'd likely have to build out an extension of some type... I'm not too worried about doing that, but easier is easier. =)

Try Envision Acrylics in OR, too.

Lots of threads in the last year or two here and elsewhere about how AA is taking months to fulfill orders now, not replying to emails etc. Consensus seems to be 'they used to be great and something has gone wrong'. YMMV

I don't know if this is still relevant, but I received an AA 36x24 AIO frag tank about 4 weeks ago. Took about 3 weeks turn around. VERY nice work, I would do business with them again. Right here at Christmas, I would expect longer waits but who knows.

Emailed them at AA and John emailed right back... he text me a sketch and I have been texting with John the last 2 days on my order to finalize the details and I am getting a 60" X 24" x 24" for $1700 delivered and 4-5 weeks is the lead time.

Fair warning: he communicates well until the payment is made, then it’s a waiting game, hoping he follows through. Most of the time, the work takes two to three times longer than promised. Always use a secure payment method that offers some form of recourse. His work is excellent—I’ve had several custom pieces done—but I’ve also had to threaten chargebacks to get projects finished. Just don’t count on him sticking to the quoted timeline.

Thought I would update you

I picked up my tank from the hub yesterday. He was pretty communicative the entire way and had me at May 10th delivery at quote and I had it almost 2 weeks early. I’d buy from him again
