Greetings fellow hobbyists!
I wanted to offer a friendly hello and introduce myself. My name is Les and I live in Mesa, AZ. I’m super excited because I am waiting for the grand arrival of my new 300 gallon custom glass aquarium, modern wood stand and custom rimless glass sump from the extraordinary, Glass Cages.
I’ve had both fresh and saltwater aquariums over the years and have a nice level of aquarium keeping knowledge. Nonetheless, I truly enjoy learning more each and every day from you ladies and gentlemen so thank you for all the questions you answer and the guidance you share.
I’m beyond excited about the build. It will be an 8 feet long x 30” wide x 25” tall masterpiece with low iron viewing panels and cross braces, smoked perimeter eurobracing, armored seams, and a concealed waterline, atop a beautiful solid wood, painted white, 36” tall stand. I’ve never had an aquarium even remotely close to this level of quality or attractiveness before, so I had much to learn, and thanks to Joe and Silas at Glass Cages, the experience has been amazing. The level of timely communication, the thorough knowledge, the enthusiasm they bring and the general level of care and support they have offered me has been incredible to the extent that my day is brighter when I get to trade a note or chat on the phone with them. It’s rare to find that kind of experience and it makes me feel very thankful that this is the builder I’ve carefully chosen and the one many of you recommended in a number of threads on here.
I’ve prepared for the tank by getting my equipment ready and setting up my RODI filtration, RODI barrel and salt mixing station. It’s been nice using this time to get everything I will need all set up.
I’m going to be setting up a nice quarantine tank, which is yet another item Glass Cages is building for me. All in all, I hope to improve upon my own past experiences, so I can truly enjoy the tank and all that it will bring to my life.
I look forward to meeting and getting to know some great hobbyists on here and for having the chance to share our joy of saltwater aquariums and reefs. I also look forward to sharing more updates with you once the tank arrives so stay tuned!
Be well and thank you all again!!
