ReefStar Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I ordered this tank about 2 months ago and just went to picked it up today!(clap)(clap) I can honestly say, "IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT!!!" The tank was perfect with no bubbles in any of the joints. I really think James at Envision is one of the best in the country in building tanks. When I was there, he was building some tanks for some guys in Saudi Arabia and shipping it out!(nutty) Now to the tank. It is a 72"x36x28" with external overflow, all from 3/4" acrylic and 1" on the back of overflow. The overflow is 60"x6"x12" All the edges has a 1/4" radius and flame polished. And here are some pics.

kriz2fer Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Envision acrylics is the Best Acrylic tank builder in the US by a long shot. He has made some of the nicest ever built from acrylic. You should be super satisfied with that tank and it looks amazing. Now let the build begin.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShaunMonahan Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Looks amazing Kenny! I think you need a biGGer overflow James' work IS the best by a long shot- agreed! The problem is now that when you have a tank that quality of a build, all else will look like crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
