Where To Get Custom Made Fish Tanks

[markandjanice]

I am thinking of getting a customer made fish tank to house frontosa cichlids.

I was really close to getting a juwel vision 450 brand new in black (tank only) for £720, a great price, but have now been told a custom made tank would be cheaper.

I am looking to purchase a (LxDxH) 5x2x2 or 5x2x2.5 or 5x2x3 (obviously dimensions are feet).

I really like the bowed on the vision but i know this is not possible on custom made or would really hike the price up.

Additional items i am thinking off is OPTI glass on the front panel, T5 lighting, black silicone, black hood, filter isnt needed.

I am lookin to see if anyone can recommend any in the UK?

I have had a quote for NDAquatics but are there any others reputable? Had a quote from someone locally and they wanted nearly £1k *jawdrop*

I live round the corner from Wharf Aquatics in Pinxton Derbyshire. They do custom tanks, aswell as being one of the best fish shops in the UK. I have no idea about costs, and obviously they are a bit of a trek for you, but the shop is well worth a visit. I've always found them brilliant to deal with, really friendly and knowledgeable.
They are closed on Wednesdays and weekends can be pretty busy.
I'd give them a ring and have a chat.
Their website is worth a look.

We used Windsor Aquatics for our tank and stand, cheapest quote we had and when they delivered it, turned out to be a ND aquatics tank and stand. Excellent quality and service.
