So lately I seem to see a lot of threads popping up on advice on custom tank manufacturers and which ones people would recommend. Last fall I went through the same process myself and landed on a manufacturer here in Canada. But it's recently dawned on me that in my search and even combing through the threads, there doesn't seem to be a nice and easy way for new buyers to read reviews on multiple companies or even hear everyone's thoughts on there own custom tanks. So here I am making this Poll on Tank manufacturers for people to hopefully share ONLY there own personal reviews on tanks that they have had made for them and the Quality of the craftsmanship.
Please and I beg of all of you, ONLY share your own experience and do not comment on manufacturers you (Or a family member @Crabs McJones) haven't previously owned or currently own. This is not a thread that I want to go off on a tangent and turn into a brand bashing thread especially with certain manufacturers that I know are in the poll. Hopefully it can just be an easier place for people to see others thoughts on there custom tanks.
Being a tank owner, if you wish, share your experience good or bad with the company you chose.

BTW I don't know every tank manufacturer under the sun so if there's one I'm missing and I'm certain there will be more than a few, Let me know and I'll throw them into the mix.
Thank you!

Size?
Cost (Obviously you don't have to share this and every tank built can vary greatly in price but it can be helpful to give someone a general ball park)?
Communication with the builder?
Time it took to complete the build and ship?
Quality of your build?
Things you loved about the build?
Things you might have done differently?
What overflow and return options were you given?
Did your builder offer you to build/supply a stand?
Any warranty information you're aware of on your build?
And finally if you could share a picture or two, or even a link to your build thread
