Aquagiant Tanks?
 
Hi
I ordered a custom tank from Aquagiant, and someone told me that their tanks, can leak or explode, any feed back on Aquagiant tanks?

Thanks

Well here is my thoughts;
I have heard many bad stories and talked to a few people first hand that had their Aquagiant tanks break or explode.
This is not a place a would pick to save a few dollars, everything else relies on the strength of the tank. Not to mention changing a tank at a later date is a huge job, totally not worth it.
If you want a custom tank try Dave at Concept Aquatics http://www.conceptaquatics.ca/ there is several threads on here about Dave and his great work.

Agree 100%

I personally own 12 custom aquagiant tanks - 90 gallon custom sizes.
so far, I haven't had any problems with them.
I am sure that there are horror stories out there about most tank companies if they have been around long enough.
I think you should be fine.

My custom sump is fine.

Any tank can leak or crack.

I had a aqua giant 180 with curved glass. Exploded the day after I filled it. 😡

I was gonna say that I thought the problems they were having was with the curved tanks.
apparently, in one case that is so.

I guess I should add that the tanks that I heard about first hand were the curved glass tanks.
