large custom aquarium manufacturer recomendations

[AWD]

I need to redo my tank, sadly. I would like bids or recommendations for companies that will make such a large custom tank. The dimensions are 82" x 28" x 46". I want two overflows for two 2" drains. And Black on the back and sides of the tank.

Thanks,

[chrissreef]

46" tall?

I'm going with A.G.E. - I know they specialize in (large) custom. They're sometimes pricier but their quality and communication speak to that. I also heard they've had 0 tanks leak but I dunno... mine arrives in 2-3 weeks =)

I went with Concept Aquarium International and was VERY happy.

Where are you located? I've got a local guy (MD, PA, VA, DC) that builds awesome tanks. Specializes in 500+g

Utah. Freight may not be a killer if those guys do a nice job and for a good price.

Thanks for the referrals.

I got a nice stainless steel frame tank from Deep Sea Aquatics. It is a 295 gallon 72 x 30 x 31.5. No cross braces. Very nice quality. They are the guys that used to do custom tanks for Oceanic and when Oceanic moved up north they started their own business here in Dallas area..

I agree with Michael7979. James at Envision has an excellent reputation. I have seen several of his large tanks and quality has always been exceptional. I got a quote from him a few weeks ago for a large tank and his prices were also quite competitive.
