120 Gallon decisions!

[Rustics]

It's not easy these days to purchase a custom glass tank. I'm looking for a 48 x 24 x 24 with Starfire front and sides. Oceanic is not doing tanks, Marineland doesn't want to do customs, and Miracles is over $1,600 bucks!
any ideas? Thanks!

In my area (Socal), there are lots of LFS and vendors that can make custom tanks. Visio, Leemar, and Perfecto to name a few. There's also glass cages that you can order from online. I guess it all depends on what area you live in, and accessibility of LFS.

I'm on the east coast. I thought about glass cages but haven't heard too many good things.

All Glass makes a 48x24x24 120g. Don't know if you can get it in Starfire glass.

Are there any reef clubs in your area that may provide insight?

Mine is a Perfecto tank, custom 60X24X20 Starphyre glass. I believe Perfecto IS Marineland's tank maker. You can look them up directly. my tank is practically perfect. However, it did cost $1500 Canadian dollars. Should be cheaper for you in the US.

coast to coast is on the side of the country, but they are likely to be as expensive (or more so) than miracle.
