Return to the hobby - "where do you get your custom tank"

[reefnewbie83177]

Hi All,
It's been about 5 years since I got rid of my last tank. Kids are growing and I am now at a point to get back into the hobby. I will be slowly building my dream system. I want to set up a frag/DT aquarium to start and will eventually add a 120 - 150 tank. I am currently looking for a 48" x 18" x 12" frag/DT tank that will be hooked up to a triton44 sump. I would like this to be rimless and starfire/ultra clear. I have been searching for custom builders from "SC aquariums" to "reef savvy" and everything in between. I am not wanting to put in the money or the wait time for reef savvy. Does anyone have recommendations on decent custom builders that would give me these requirements that wont set me back an arm and a leg? I don't need top of the line, but want something that is visually appealing. Thanks in advance and glad to be back in the hobby. Once I start getting things going I will post a build thread.

Though not custom per se, you might want to check out deep blue. They make a nice range of rimless frag tanks.

Cadlights built or builds a 36" x 24" x 16" frag type rimless tank with a built in overflow, it is a sexy tank. IM Lagoon 50 is 30" x 24" x 18" I think, with a built in rear chamber.

Lifetime or Miracles are both I’ve used in the past.

Thanks for the input. I have been looking at a custom from SC aquariums and they seem to be the best priced, albeit likely at the cost of quality, but this isn't going to be my main DT, so I don't feel like spending a couple thousand dollars on it. I looked at deep blue, but don't like the corner overflow on there frag tank, and the cost is very comparable to a custom from SC.
