Local tank manufacturer for custom 20L???

[minimasterflash]

I am looking for a local maker for a custom 20L tank, i need it to be 30x13Hx12, front starphire and euro/no bracing. Anyone know of someone in the local dallas/houston/SA/Austin area who can do this?

My problem is that 3 vendors have told me they will not ship glass tanks that small individually.

Thanks

The only tank manufacturer in the area that I know of is Aquatrend in San Antonio.

My question would be, is it really worth the money to have that small of a tank custom made?

Why do you need this tank custom?

I am curious.

Dan, you left out the "wink, wink"

I'm sure it was there, we just can't see you're expressions. :grin:

Dan-
I'm interested in you making me another (larger than we have) 'fuge...probably around 30G? I'm leaning more towards a cube shape. Are you going to be at the meeting this Sunday? I'd like to talk to you about it further. LMK?

Well I want a BIG-small tank and i plan on keeping it for a long time, so why not go ahead, come correct and get a tank built to my exact specs versus doing a LOT of work to a All-glass paper thin tank just to save $$.

THanks for the lead, I have to have glass, i'm way to rough for acrylic.

i believe amazonia in austin does custom tanks.

Did you talk to GlassCages.com? Not local but a lot of people have had them build tanks for them.

Yes, i called them, and they rather rudely told me that won't ship a tank that small. Guess there isn't enough profit to deal with the hassle of a small tank.

I contacted AquaTrend in SA and they can do it, I am still waiting to hear back from a couple other places. Amazonia should be contacting me shortly with a quote also. Thanks for the leads.

just wanted to make him aware, I am positive there are more happy than unhappy aquatrend customers, however, it is good to know how the owner reacts when it hits the fan.
