Hi,
Has anyone ever had an acrylic tank manufactured by Aquariums By The Sea-out of Ocala, Fl.? Their web page indicates they use a thicker diameter acrylic-dependent upon dimension/tank size, 1/2" min.. I am looking at purchasing a 150 gal tank possibly from them to replace a crappy 90 gal tank I had that was almost entirely covered with crazing/stress cracks due to what I believe was too thin of acrylic. I ordered the thin piece of crap through a LFS in Orlando, Fl , dont know who the manufacterer was. Heat was not a factor nor was using an incorrect cleaner. Anyway if anybody has dealt with this outfit I would appreciate any info on their quality and customer service. They have a 5-year warranty.

Thank You,
Bill

I have never worked with them directly, but I have never heard a lot of bad mouthing either. They use to be a competitor of ours when they were down here if Ft. Lauderdale. I forget the owners name, I think it is John. He has always been extremely nice when we have spoken. Keep us informed on how it goes.
