[@joshhansen763]

watching the guy put the silicon in the seams is way too satisfying lol...could watch it on a loop

[@JayJayAY1234]

Half a world away and wanted to make my own tank 😂 seeing this process made me rethink my steps. Awesome to see tanks made to such an excellent standard.

[@josepolanco1228]

Thank for this video. Interesting view of process

[@JoshuaD485]

Great video! I have always wondered how tanks are made. I loved watching the process! Keep up the great content!

[@CichlidBros]

Thank you - appreciate it!

[@hookedonfishing2095]

So all 4 glass sides sat on top of the bottom glass?

[@TheHemiphil81]

I build boats for a living 20 plus years, I would love to have a job building aquariums..for me that would be any job. 😊

[@toliscy]

Where can I get those silicon spacers I searched all over the internet

[@rdred8693]

Look up "Cabinet Door Bumpers".

Thanks for watching!

[@discofountain]

Can't wait for the video setting up that awesome tank.

[@MrKevinkj2002]

Hello Cichlid Bros, I know this is a older video, but I was wondering if they leave those silicone bumper spacers in? They look like normal cabinet door bumps. About what spacing they do on those spacers? Thanks guys, you guys do some great informational videos.

[@hookedonfishing2095]

Interested as well

[@ronderfulaquariums2978]

awesome tour great video as usual fellas

[@CichlidBros]

Thank you!

[@TheirWorldAquatics]

Awesome video and well explained and edited! Steve Poland Aquatics also did a video and tour on this facility and the quality and professionalism of the company. Superior job Cichlid Bros! Keep up the great work and videos!!!

[@CichlidBros]

Thank you - really appreciate it!

[@AndrewKilvington]

Great vid, very interesting and thanks for sharing 👍

[@CichlidBros]

Thanks for watching!

[@markknudsen1755]

Very interesting! Thanks for recommending the video. So do they do smaller tanks as custom as well? Like 28-30 gal or that not cost effective

[@CichlidBros]

Yep they do. Not sure about the cost efficiencies of the smaller tanks though. They seem to specialize in the mid to large tank sizes but could do anything I’m sure

[@sed6]

So cool! Subbed!

[@CichlidBros]

Welcome to the channel!

[@brianp2707]

Been going back and forth between Custom Aquariums and Glass Cages for a custom tank. Both great companies

[@1stexecutiveconstruction]

Same here. Which one you went with? I want to order a 150+ gallon tank.

[@CichlidBros]

I’m getting my 2nd custom aquarium this week. Absolutely love their tanks

[@brianp2707]

​@Cichlid Bros sure rub it in 🤣

[@danfmartin1970]

Do they put the side panels directly on top of the bottom or beside? its hard to tell. Thanks.

[@LiveLoveLaugh_44]

First time. Going to be a long time. Sub

[@CichlidBros]

Thank you! Welcome to the channel!

[@LiveLoveLaugh_44]

@@CichlidBros I’m enjoying your Art.

[@Rob-c3y]

No doubt they probably build the best aquariums around but I think when the guy said a little extra it's a lot extra.They are just too expensive for me anyway the lifetime warranty is only active if you buy there stand as well,so no I'll go elsewhere!

[@simonsu6573]

How do they remove the glass spacer after silicon?

[@fletcherwright7042]

Nice video

[@israelsalcedo2073]

Where can you get that plastic from

[@djack8430]

Been thinking about getting an custom aquarium..aquarium for my giant musk. Had em in a 150 for a couple years before the seems leaked, not sure if it was musk turtle related but he does have pretty giant claws. Afraid of glass leaking again but miss actually being able to see my turtle.

[@kamleshdhruv5217]

Hi, I wanted to make my custom aquarium which will be 12ft in length and with height of 6ft and width of 5 feet. I live in India and saw your video and had questions to prolong the life span of the aquarium with the size mentioned. Here are few questions I had. 1. What is an average life span of silicon made aquarium. 2. Will a normal alluminium bracing suffice. 3. The inner edges of aquarium if coated with combination of acrylic and extra layer of silicon to prevent the silicon layer of the edges. Would this increase the life span of the aquarium? Because this was the water contact with inner edge of silicon will then be 0%. Waiting for you answers. Thanks & Regards.

[@arvandconfec4234]

best

[@CichlidBros]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@tls5669]

Question is, do they ship?

[@CichlidBros]

Yep, anywhere in the US

[@tntcichlids8015]

[@mattmonteith2175]
