Hi all,

I currently have a Biocube 32g setup and am considering going larger. I'm not having a lot of luck looking at setups though. Here are my wants:

50 - 75g capacity
Prefer an AIO
Prefer acrylic
Require canopy (not optional)

I had bookmarked Midwest Custom Aquariums earlier but got a less than stellar response from them and they clearly don't want my business. I've looked at a couple mass produced acrylic AIOs. but the acrylic is only 1/4" on those and I don't feel that's thick enough, even though this wouldn't be a huge tank. I could do glass, but I really do prefer acrylic, and have never had a canopy on a glass tank (something about the weight of wood sitting on a glass tank makes me very nervous, even if that's not a reasonable uneasiness LOL).

FYI You are going to pay a lot for a custom acrylic tank and its going to take time.
Labor and acrylic issues (the covid thing).

Not very concerned about that, but Midwest completely dismissed me. I wasn't worth their time, apparently.
