Remember all prices are in US dollars on their site.

Remember, mitch will take your deposit, wait a month, then fill your head with lies of why ur tank isn't done...

Can take 3-12 weeks to have one tank made...

easier to go to golds and pay a few % more

BUT...

You also live in Calgary, apparently that makes a huge difference. Most people who live in Calgary get good service from them. If all you can do is telephone correspondance then he can make your life miserable.

My tank is a "Mitch" tank. A very long and painful process, and the end result (my tank) had a scratch on the front $$ glass. Noticed it when I got home and cleaned it. I know I didn't do it but couldn't prove it. Starfire too! Next time I'll happily pay more to buy from professionals.

I had no problems with them, but all i got was the glass and i put the tank together myself. only took them about a week as well. I got the 210g tank with starfire front for 700 bucks.and a small 18" cube tank. I also got all the silicone and buklheads.
