I myself would be willing to shell out an additional 75-100 for the piece of mind that i won't get 100 or so gallons of saltwater on the floor, and potentially do more damage to my house (plywood and 2x4, 2x10... do not mix well) just a thought.
I agree, but usually it is more than $100 bucks between these 2 types of builders, I think that is the problem. But I still would pay the extra, if that was the case from the better builder.

Many state that why pay so much when it is just glass and silicone? Well if it was that easy, then we would all be building our own tanks, but we don't, so I guess it isn't!

Don't just go on price, base it on the quality of the product. More importantly the qaulity in workmanship in the seals.

I would diffinately recommond Jay, very top end quality and the price wasn't that bad. Seeing the Concept Aquariums work in photos, it seems they offer the same quality... Personally, I would love to see one of their tanks in person, as the photos look nice.
