    Anyone have somewhere I can start looking? I know there is glasscages but for now I want to avoid them if I can. I want to start getting some quotes so then I know how many pennies to start saving /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/laugh.gif

    I have heard some real horror stories from GC, but for every bad one there are 10 good ones.

    You can check with midwest custom aquariiums. He made mine out of acrylic, not sure if he does glass or not.

    Thanks guys. I checked out Miracles, AGE and Great Lake Aquariums. I asked for a quote from Miracles but scared to see shipping. Great Lakes Aquariums looks to be good prices but shipping is a minimum of $300 it looks like..ouch!

    We are looking to have a large tank built, either from acrylic or glass and would like to find a source near NE iowa, as we would want it delivered and installed. Approx 130 x 31 ½ x 30", but are still thinking about dimensions :)

    I found a store called Adams Aquatics in DM, but having a hard time getting response from them, are there any others?

    I believe Great lakes aquariums did all the frag and original show tank at coral haven. Looked like very nice work.
