Any local places that build tanks?

[drjosay]

hey guys,
My wife is finally allowing me to put a reef tank in the living room! I have been checking around online for tanks, but I cant seem to find any that I really want. Does anybody know if there is a local shop (or surrounding area) that will build a custom tank (for a reasonable cost)? I know it will cost more than a factory tank, but I figure if I'm gonna spend the money I should get the one I want. The only place I've seen online that will build custom tanks is Glass Cages, and I've heard both good and bad reviews from people in other forums.

Any tips/advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I know that aqua world has built some acrylic tanks for people. Not sure if they do glass.

I thought they went out of business about a year ago, are they still around? I had them build a stand for me several years ago.

I am pretty sure Joel retired and closed his shop.

I'm not sure. I haven't been down there in awhile. I have his card on my desk at home, guess its no good now.
