Anyone have any recent experience with glasscages.com
All reviews have been from awhile ago that I can find. I want to know if they've improved their craftmanship.
 
I purchased a Glass Cages tank about 6 mos ago. I have to say the tank build is pretty good. I purchased a 390 gallon commercial grade tank with low iron viewing on the front panel. The tank was a beast with 3/4 in thick glass panels. Overall the sealant was done well and the glass was free of defects. What glass cages lacks is the ability to meet the most discriminating customers needs. For example, they do offer overflow covers but they are not suitable to the flow needed for this tank. I ended up outsourcing these to a local acrylic expert in the area who is also a passionate reefer. For the money it's hard to beat but don't expect any hand holding. I'd recommend this tank for the seasoned do it yourself-er. Customer support is minimal. My tank turned out great but it wasn't because of the warm and fuzzy support. They do know what they are doing but don't expect them to share it with you. LOL.
 
Is this the 390 C 2.5 with 96 x 37.5 x 30,5 for $1890. I am thinking of purchasing this exact tank in the near future. How many pounds do you think this tank weighs. Do you think 6 men will be able to transport it. Where did glasscages deliver it to and did you have to pick it up. Was there delivery charges. Sorry for all the questions.
