Will give him the go ahead once my parents consult the geomancer tomorrow, will be settling for a 5ft*2ft*2.5ft(H) as 6" of viewable space will go to the hood and bottom.

He came prepared with lots of pictures, technical diagrams and laminate samples. :lol:

He's good! :lol:

Offered me thicker Chengai beams and flatform as my cabinet is pretty high(48"). He's a pretty easy going guy and did not charge me for extra work; thats why I did not bargin with him as the price is already very reasonable.

The excellent service aside, he's very honest and forthcoming as well. :lol:

And on top of that, he's pretty knowledgeable with cabinet design and construction. :)

hi bro's agree with kueytoc haha cheers.AM goooood.......

I think they quote $1600 for my 4x2x2 12mm partition tank without piping.

I am getting a similiar tank with external overflow on a 5ft stand with piping included at $1300.

That is quite a bit of difference there if you ask me.

Just a note. Both are cabinet tanks.

Out of respect and not wanting to upset my parents, I have decided against setting up the tank. The position of the proposed location clashes with the geomancer's calculations; and that is the only location I can place my tank.

Looks like I'm not destined to make a come back. :cry2::cry2::cry2:

How can I not have any corners pointing at the front door ... darn!!! Have not heard of any 5ft curved tank and cabinet set before.

How about a circular tank?

Think can have a bow front. and have the edges of the cabinet made rounded. Some of my furniture in the house is custom made with rounded corners for the same reason as yours.

Thanks for the encouragement guys.

Checked with Gerald, the maximum size for a curved tank is 4ft. On top of that, the tank will have to be made of tempered glass. Tempered glass is a big no no, especially if its meant for marine.

He himself said using tempered glass for marine is like having a time bomb in the house.
