Custom built tanks locally?

K

k20fa5

Is there anyone/anywhere in DFW that makes custom tanks? I'm kind of looking for someone "like" Glasscages who can make a tank from a set of dimensions.

I'm going to be needing a small, odd shaped tank to fit in a stand above the sump for a frag tank.

I just don't want to order one if I can get one locally.

Thanks,
Brian
 
There is also a guy who is a member here who has done a few. I think he did Marks tank (MBZ). I can't recall his handle. Might drop MBZ a PM and ask him if he doesn't see this thread.

David recently built me a 60g frag tank. I was very pleased with his work and would highly recommend him.

If you loved mine you will drool over marks mbz starphire on three sides and external overflow I was jealous when I helped him bring it inside his house. The clarity of starphire puts glasscages low iron to shame. There is a difference between the two
 
I'd like to get in contact with David regarding a custom tank. Do you know if he'd build tank over 100+? Thanks in advance.
