Recommend a tank builder for me

[HomeSlizzice]

So here's the deal...

I'm looking into the idea of selling my current 3 aquariums I have and simply move into one. I really like the new Red Sea Reefer series tank, and I've also considered going with a CAD Lights set up. However, if I go with a custom tank I am wanting to go with a tank that is 48L x 24W x 18T. I would want to go with something that 2 people can carry without feeling like they are getting killed haha. I am also wanting a 4ft tank. I know with my current rimless Leemar 48x30x20 is a PITA to have to move, so I want something a little smaller, but not too small. I am also wanting a corner overflow. I know of SCA Aquariums, Leemar, and CAD Lighting for potential tank builders in Southern California, but I am a little stuck. What are your experiences? Pros, Cons, etc. Thanks!

Leemar isn't in business anymore. Clear Diamond Aquariums took over.

You can also look into Precision Aquariums. The 45 degree edges on those tanks looked outstanding.

+1 on Precision. My tank should be ready in about a month from them and so far it's looking fantastic!

If you can wait until October for RAP, CD , SCA, CAD, and Precision will all be at RAP. Also AGE and Glasscages. All under one roof!

Hit up SCA, you could get a 120g out the door for 6 bills.

Awesome to hear, I'll be contacting him.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll probably wait then. I want to make sure I get what I feel is the right tank for me and at a good deal. Going to a show is always a good idea.

Dang dude! That is costly, definitely higher than I am looking to spend. Good to know Reef Savvy is out haha.

That's a solid price. I'll definitely contact them. Thanks!
