![]() Looks great! Wow, 4 months, yeah the anticipation must be agonizing!
![]() Can't wait to see the final product in action. Those external overflows are a great idea.

![]() That tank looks great. I was looking to purchase almost the exact same tank but 26" high. How well did it travel? Could I ask roughly what you paid and what parts are starfire? Did they just paint the back and overflows or is that some type of starboard? How is the silicon job?
I was really happy with how quickly AO answered my questions and I hear their tanks rock. I'm just waiting for my builder to let me know when he'll have time to start my new house where this will be going.

![]() we should have posted things up sooner, I didn't think we'd have people offer to help so easily. The electrical is all done already, we are actually ready to load it onto the stand. I will post more pics soon of the build.

![]() mseepman, from what we've seen everything looks awesome, we haven't taken it out of the crating totally yet as it has to go down a flight of stairs and into our basement. We would like to keep it crated for the move of possible. I'll let you know when we uncrate it. They did paint the back and left side panel black and they also painted the inside of the overflows black with a special paint that is safe for fish. The front and right side panel are starphire glass.
We were very impressed with AO, they were prompt in getting back to us with any questions we had and even gave us some suggestions. We paid almost $2700 for the tank and that included shipping from Ontario, we checked around and prices were similar ordering it from Sea Star but we liked the craftmanship better from AO. |
