Michigan Acrylic Tank Builders?
« on: November 10, 2019, 05:08:07 PM »
I'm an idiot and put a shop light on top of my 180 and cracked the top.

Are there any acrylic tank builders in Michigan?  Any good suggestions if I have to get something shipped?

I have a few places bookmarked in the Midwest.  Would have to pay shipping, and would rather not.  I'm in grand rapids, but have no problem driving to the east side

looking to buy a 4' 120 at the least, but haven't found one a craigslist for a couple years

Had to put my fahaka puffer back in the 75g in my kitchen.  He seems better upstairs but feel bad putting him back in a 75

Art!!!  What's going on?  Good to see you're still alive!

There's a place around Saginaw,  but I don't remember the name.  Blue something or other?

Still kick'n, sent blue thumb an email

Built a fish room trying to cram as much in as possible

Thinking more about starting over with fewer/larger tanks, or just getting out for the most part

Basically did that myself.  In 2017, with Scott MacKenzie's help,  I downsized to 15 tanks and nothing under 4' long.

Bringing this topic back to the top. Any recommendations on large acrylic aquarium manufacturers in or around  Michigan? Looking to go 225 or bigger. Ideal would be 72*24*30.
