West cost supply of large raceways?

ectoaesthetics · Apr 14, 2021

Does anyone know of/have experience with a west coast supply of aquatic raceways? These huge tanks seems super cost effective. However they almost all seem to be made in Florida or the Great Lakes area... and shipping is cost prohibitive. A couple of the sites advertise free shipping but reading the fine print it doesn’t apply to an 8 foot long tank -which feels very fair!

Not having much success just looking for them online so I figured I would just ask the community.

Looking for 3-4 ft wide and 6-8+ feet long... fingers crossed for 18” ish deep.

That's a tough one, thinking of all the contacts I know are the same, midwest and southeast.

I found https://aqualogicinc.com/

You could find a phone number of a state/federal hatchery in the western states pretty easy. Find one that has a good website and looks like it spends money and give them a call, most hatchery guys I talk with are pretty forth coming when it comes to where they buy stuff.

Could you work with something circular? I know a lot of modern fin fish aquaculture are moving toward circulars.
