    The one beside NA, colourful, does the same thing too. My advise is to compare price 1st as what i did when i looking for mine last year.

    Hi bro, what size do you want to customized?

    If big tank, a lot of good reference for weeyang or david. I just ordered a 4ft from weeyang too...

    Warmest Regards from Merviso aka Merv Soh

    I would advise against Coral Reef Aquarium. I ordered my custom tank from them recently and had lots of quality issues:
    -scratches on the glass one of which is clearly visible (they gave me a small discount because of this)
    -the tank arrived rather dusty and with lots of silicone slivers that I have to scrap off myself
    -the cabinet was made too large and had to be sent back for modification
    -barely acceptable carpentry e.g. laminate dirty or poorly applied, uneven joints
    -shelf for cabinet missing and had to chase them for it
    -oyama backing over-sized due to careless measurements

    Better to avoid them regardless of price :P

    For me I thought the service was good until the day the tank came... but hopefully you have better luck.

    Sorry I don't mean to. Its just a factual description of my experience with them. CR rectified most of the faults, just that with some care on their part, the issues would not have arose in the first place. Anyway, I probably have a run of bad karma with them haha.

    i ordered from them based on high recommendations from a few people. i guess as long as they rectify the faults it's ok for me, i'm not picky

    so far my encounter with CR is thumbs up. I ordered one 4 by 1.5 by 1.5 with sump last year for the montfort project. Top notch!! More recently, I got them to sponsor 3 one feet cube and 15 six inch cube. All top notch workmanship. In fact i am placing another order with them for my new client.

    err... sorry but not that i want to challenge your post but so far in my dealings with them, I have never harass or presssure them. One call settles everything. I guess who you speak to matters. Cheers!!

    No problem... I wrote that tongue-in-cheek. I am sure there are others who have better experience with CR. But like I said, I just want to share what went wrong with my tank, so others can take it as a data point when deciding who to order the tank from.
