I'm looking to buy one, but don't really want to drive to Dallas to pick one up from glasscages.com.
Thanks!
Thanks!

I think their list is only 150. Not bad, but if I can get it local and save on fuel i'll due it. My truck isn't exactly efficient....

Yeah, think I was quoted 399 from Dan at Neptunes for Universal to do it, but that was with 2 holds in the bottom for reef-ready with overflow, and 3 extra holes in the back for closed loop. No starfire though.

Just got a quote for a custom 70 gallon!
> 26 x 26 x 25 tall aquarium $180.00

> Low iron glass costs an additional $80.00
Only 260 for a starfire tank. Amazing.

Now is that with holes drilled? and what thickness of glass?
It was teh extra 3 holes that put my estimate higher. But I just get nervous about drilling tanks after they are made, rather have them drilled before they are set.

I just talked to glasscages.com and he quoted me $80 for a 20 x20 x 24 cube and $20 for the corner overflow, as for the holes, well I can drill them myself, shipping for the Houston area is $30. So that makes it $130.oo for the cube with overflow, not to bad, have ordered myself and a friend two, will keep you posted.
