Red Coral built my tank last year, and I drove 16 hours round trip to pick it up :lol: If I had done a little more research, I might have had it done in Edmonton where it would have been a little closer, but honestly the tank I had built is beautiful...Starphire glass, polished and bevelled edges, eurobraced. The custom work coming out of RC is second to none, and like they say, you get what you pay for...and if paying a little extra means the build is done right the first time, it's worth it...and I don't loose sleep at night thinking about a tank failure, shaddy building techniques, or materials that were designed for something else...say...shower doors?

Holy smokes that sounds awesome! Do you have any monster tank references? Pictures? :D

was this referring to me? as i didn't reminder talking to you or giving you a quote on a tank. If i did, i will apologize for confusing you, normally i am a very easy going guy to deal with:lol: Why didn't you post some details of what you are looking for and i will see what i can help you out with, as i am give a giving mood this month lol

[quote=Magma;574105]heard mixed price ranges from them, so im on the fence with ordering a tank right now.

no no just looking through build threads I have seen the prices ranges, I was talking about elite that I got the crap service from.

It's sad that your experience at Elite was so bad as the tank I got there from Jay is beyond anything I could have hoped for. The sump is awesome! Now I just got to get it all going...lol.

Im pretty picky when it comes to customer service and when I get a bad experience right away it shows to me there not worth my time no matter how good his tanks might look.

Jay != Colby.

I'm pretty sure you can deal directly with him if you want to these days. Jay's a good guy and does care.

+1, Colby is out of the picture now anyways. I would give Jay a chance.

I myself would never deal with Colby again, even if he was in the biz still. But I would diffinately try to deal with Jay again. He does build an awesome tank, and mine is from him.

I would suggest trying to see tanks. I myself would offer my tank so you can see Jay's work, maybe others can offer theirs to view also. Then you can make an educated choice.

Happy Holiday's Everyone!!!
