The 4 to 6 weeks is definitely not happening they tell u at 6 weeks it will be 8 to 10 then say we sorry for delays. But if u do like me I got alot of free stuff with delays. I got 6 pack waterbox hand towels. The 2 way manifold. The white glove treatment. U gotta work them

haha ya I figured I wouldn't get it in that timeframe with all the horror stories. Its the only tank I know of that is in the 16" tall range and still wide. I got the Frag 155.5.

dang i was gonna switch to the reef 150 when they went on sale few weeks ago but didn't wanna wait again. Cause I started with the aio 65.4 and canceled 6 weeks in and got this one. The 150 cabinets are built with real wood and not like this 1. But it will do for 2 years until I get a 240 or bigger I have a 200 fresh so I wanted this in my bedroom and this was only size that would fit right next to me in bed until I buy a bigger house then bigger tank. Waterbox tanks are definitely flawless looking

Ordered my 60.2 EX on July 4th. Still haven't heard anything from WB on the build or ship date. Even if it takes a couple of months...some sort of communication would be nice.

Anybody else have issues with Waterbox taking forever to ship out a tank? I'm on week 8 and my new tank still hasn't shipped.

I just recently ordered a custom tank, was told 90 days. Reasonable to me

FYI the manifold is garage so glad I didn't pay for it. The barb fitting holes are alot smaller than a pencil. I ordered cpex valves and made my own the lid is trash also dont waste your money. U can have mine I ordered a top lid

I did. Ordered July 4th. Received the first week of September. Approximately 9 weeks. It arrived in perfect condition and is a well built, beautiful tank. I intend to do a build thread when I get it set up but because of my work schedule I wont have time to do that until Christmas time.

I feel that im going slow too trying to figure out my plumbing now I got a big sump so not much room for reactors, fmk,wye valve,dosers and all. Still waiting on my top lid to come in and my aquascape i made is curing in brute cans.
