Can try Vincent from Aquarium Artist, at Pandan Loop. So far quite friendly and knowledgable during my meetup with him. Have also seen his sample tanks and cabinets and I feel the worksmanship is good.

Hi Bro,

You managed to get the tank you want?

I'm looking to custom make a 2ft tank for my cabinet as I decided to quit Shrimping.

Can't use back the tank for marine cos it got a partition in the middle, removing it may weaken the support of the tank.

Please kindly share some info on the cost and lead time for ordering tank.

Thank you.

Hey bro,

I also last quit shrimping to finally get into marine!

Anyway, 2ft tank is very cheap and lead time quite quick from my experience. I have personally made tanks through SGBros (Tank Junction), N30 and currently getting one made from Aquarium Artist.

In my honest opinion, if you want a full on 'marine specific' setup (overflow & sump design), approach tank makers that specialize in marine (ie; the sponsors here). They know what they are talking about and can advise you accordingly. With the rest, i felt that you needed to know what you want and what you are doing first. For a newbie like me, it was a daunting task. Until I met Vincent from Aquarium Artist. The rest is history. He made many things i was blur about make sense and gave consumer confidence at a competitive price too!

If you don't need a sump and just need a bare tank, in 1to 2 weeks you can get a decent priced tank from the above mentioned tank makers from my experience. Just let them know you doing marine so they won't give you thinner glass which could be risky.

Thanks Bro JoeyBabooey.

Wanted to get a tank with jus front with crystal glass. As for the glass thinkness,

I'm worried that my existing cabinet may not be able to hold the full weigth with LR and sand,

Any advise?

Thank you.

No worries at all, bro anmiheng!

what kind of cabinet do you have at the moment?

we could probably get away with 6mm glass thickness but we need to be sure that rocks are not leaning on the glass and they won't fall. But best is definitely 8mm as recommended my tank makers.

currently I have my 2 footer (from Fishy Business) with 6mm crystal glass on plywood/MDF cabinet. 4 inch DSB and about 4kg of rock. 4-5months already and so far so good. although i feel its a ticking time bomb until my new tankset arrives.

if your cabinet is somewhat the same as mine for the materials, i think you might want to invest in a tank & cabinet using proper wood if you going into it long term. Although making the tank is cheap but a proper cabinet is always more expensive..

Hi bro,

The tank was ordered from East Ocean for shrimps. It should be safe and the soil I used for shrimp is quite alot too.

Will take ur advise as not to leans the rock on the glass.

Would like to start from small and hope will be able to upgrade to a bigger tank if I'm able to keep it alive and well.

I've order a 6mm tank which will deliver on Monday.

Hope everything will go smoothly...... Cheers

The hunt for equipments starts...........

Seconded...the FW and marine setup are totally different and good to see the sharing info of tank makers.
