Looking to see how much a custom tank will cost me. If you guys know of any food sites let me know. I know glass cages is local to me. Has anyone ever used them? Do they make quality stuff?

I can only speak for myself now,
150 gallons starfire tank 72"X24"X21" = $ 1680.51
75 gallons starfire tank 48"X18"X21"= $ 843.09
60 gallong sump tank 48"X20"x16"= $ 200

Now that being said some people actually come and see the quality of it. Its remarkably well designed and done. They don't cut corners like in the market does. Specifically on the joints and the adhesive for your tank. Some of my friends had blow outs and some leaking some twice in a row . So i told them next time custom made is the way to go. You pay a bit more, for that reason i chose star fire glass and it make a great difference on the price , but man is it worth it.

I had my stands made by them too; 2" steel powder coated
2 " steel powder coated stand 72"x24"x28" = $450.00


2" steel powder coated stand 48"x21"x83" = $550.00

I asked them to do a glass wave box , they did for $20 considering what they cost on the market.....$500
