do they do custom dims or is it just standard dims
They do custom everything, what ever floats your boat. I already have a stand so I all I can really do is go taller.
But i dont know yet, maybe I will get it taller 72x24x30.

lighter, thicker, earthquake safe, and clearer than starphire glass. Plus we are getting a huge deal for less than the price of glass. Acrylic is always more than glass, but since I am dealing direct with the owner of PFI, we get a nice deal. :congrats:

i think for a large aquarium acrylic is the way to go because its safer and will be more flexible during earthquake my 300 spill so much water during the last earthquake i don't think glass will held up!
for a average set up nothing is better than starphire because of scratch resistant is better than acrylic
if you want starphire i think charlie@thefishtankfactory is your man!
BTW i have 6 months+ debate on this issue!
