Does anyone know what is the estimated cost of customize a 3.5ft tank cabinet alone by tanker maker (kapok wood)?

Dimension : 115 x 40 x 80 or 90 cm

For 2 ft tank cabinet will probably ard $500-$600 depend laminate and wood chosen! I was quoted by a tank maker before.

Oh...that is expensive. My current 3ft tank was done by Malaysia tank maker and the price only S$900 nia... :yeah: !

just to remind you to coat all the hinges and buy stainless steel screws. Its very important. There are the stainless steel hinge but its like almost 8 x the cost. we just coat ours with paint as think as possible with a can of paint is still cheaper then the stainless steel ones. but screws not so ex so just buy

Thanks! Yah i know the hinges will rust in no time so mine got no hinges! The whole front panel will be removable and attached by magnets. All metal screws and brackets have been sealed or coated with a couple layers of lacquer.
