Default Bow valleys Crazy warehouse.

Well i just went to bow valley aquariums, and that place is nuts. I got a tour of the place, they have a grand caymen crocodile and another huge crocodile in a nother enclosure. That place is awsome really nice people. And they have everything i could ever want for my tank. My glass should be ready next friday so we will see how that goes, and my 18x18x18 cube for only 40 bucks.

Hate to rain on your parade but it isn't unusual for them to be way behind on their orders. My friend's custom 90 gallon took an extra week after they had to redo the screw ups. Then after we got it home we noticed a scratch on the front starfire.

Well you see there not making the tank just supplying all the glass for me and bukaneer to make in my house. The guy i talked to neil was a real nice guy and he said it woul only take 3 to 4 days but i told him i wont even be ready till next friday. Still the place is awsome. They have everything there, they are even a wholesaler for AGA. Just always remeber cash gets you the best deal, my tank is 66x24x30 with starfire front smoked overflows and returns drilled and a 18x18x18 cube for 700 taxes paid.

i got my 18x18x18 cube from them, took them under 2 weeks if you can believe it! Maybe locals get preferential treatment?

I never even saw mitch, i talk to a guy named neil and he said he would be the one doing my order, we had a talk about all the people who dont like them, he said If mitch wasnt such a lier then there wouldnt be a problem also he said some people caugh americans caugh are way to anal about things calling ever 2 days to check up on things. And if you saw how many tanks they build you would see why it takes a while.

I wouldn't doubt there is some amount of preferential treatment for locals or Canadians as a whole.

You didn't happen to notice large stacks of completed smaller sized aquariums, did you? 10, 15, etc. gal sizes...
