    how to drill hole in acrylic?

    Bring it down to CFI world headquarters, and we can drill and tap it for a John Guest fitting. Only take a few minutes. Jason

    Canister Filters?

    The Eheim canister filters are the BMW's of the canister world. We have always had great success with them, they even make some with the heaters built in. If your on a budget then get the Fluval. J

    120 reef

    How about putting the fuge above the tank, and gravity feed it back to the tank? Would allow more sump/equipment room. I'd run a wood face frame above and below the tank, so I could have an access panel above to clean the front easier. You have some nice looking wood work in your house, and...

    190 gal goes to Texas!

    RF, Just an update on this awesome acrylic masterpiece. Check out these pic's! Here she is all detailed and sitting pretty. Check out that porthole! I just laugh when I see a production tank with two portholes for a 29 gallon in a tank this size. Shrink wrap, then 1/8" foam, then more...

    We do Blue Back Tanks as well

    RF, We just finished 2 Blue back tanks for our good friends at Oceans By Design. I bet you could probably get an up close peek at them if you run down there before their client scoops them up. I only had time to take 2 pic's of the smaller of the 2. 60x20x24 with a center OFB. Let's hear...

    190 gal goes to Texas!

    Thank you for the kind words. For awhile I couldn't even get a "you suck" from the posts of builds with pic's. I was starting to think this place was a ghost town!

    190 gal goes to Texas!

    Are you the guy with the 4x8x18" tank that came from that store in Lacey? One of my service clients ended up with half of the fish system. Very cool, and thank you for the kind words.

    190 gal goes to Texas!

    RF, Once in a while, we get the pleasure to build someone's dream tank that lives a little ways away. We fell honored to be trusted to build everyone's tank, but someone who could have picked any builder across the country, but chose us, means were doing something right. So check out Keith's...

    Trick Steel Stand

    RF, We have been working with a new client for a few months now, and have been building a first class system for them. The great thing is he knows exactly what he wants, "the best" which makes it a piece of cake for me. We started with the tank, a 72x30x30 all 3/4" Polycast, with a...

    Checking intrest on a NANO Tank Group Buy

    RF, Thought I'd put it out there to see if there is any interest in a NANO Tank group buy. A quantity of 10+ would be the name of the game. They would have to be almost identical to prevent a nightmare on my end. What size? You tell me what you want, and we will match it up with what others...

    New Web Site

    Thanks guys! It was a huge effort, and will be a work in progress. Any pic's of tanks, filters or whatever that I have built for any of you, feel free to send them my way for addition to the new site. I know I want to see pic's whenever I visit a web site. I have more than a few clients that...

    New Web Site

    RF, After many years of running with a web site that was pretty weak, we just launched a new one that is a little more modern and up to date. Please check it out, and give me your feedback. If you would like, send me a tank order as well! Never hurts to try, right? Thanks, Jason

    move aquarium to lay flooring

    I have developed the best way to do this. 1. Call CFI, and order a tank that is 12" bigger in both length and width. 2. Set up said tank in a new location, and move all animals into new tank. 3. Move old tank, and replace flooring. 4. Place tank back into original spot, and restock. I think...

    New 180 gallon

    Thank you gentlemen! This tank fought me all the way, but it submitted to my will. It turned out outstanding. The customer agrees, which is the important part for me. I know all you guys have seen my work and can appreciate what it takes, but to hear nothing but grasshoppers chirping! Lets hear...

    What size conduit? I have a 3/4" bender at the shop. I am no artist with it, but can get the job done!
