I'm trying to find some place I can go to or order from so I can get some glass cut for a 12x12x7 tank Id like to bulid. Thoughts? Talking with the LFS they can only get a 12x12x12. I want something shallow for corals at work. I tried emailing Micro-reefs.com but they never got back to me on a quote.

Looking for glass

Are you looking to just get the glass and build yourself or you want a custom tank built for you?
When trying to get into contact with micr-reefs.com about it I was asking for a quote for both. If it's not going to cost that much more for it to be put together for me then so be it. If not, I'll do it myself. I already have a 12x10x7 but it's made from thin glass from Lowes. I'd like to get something thats 1/8 or 1/4. The 12x12x12 at The Fish Factory is made with 1/4 so thats what Im aiming for.
Not sure were your located but when I was going to do my custom sump I went to south river glass he was very helpful and he stocks and will cut any size you need and only charges for the glass you use. I know some places make you buy a full sheet..
Funny you mention Yellow Pages. I use to work for Normans Auto Glass where they also do windows. So they have glass instock that I could use. I just dont ever want to step foot in that place again. Plus I'm sure they'd rape me on the price. As for paying for a full sheet, that's what Lowes did to me for the 12x10x7. I'm going to look tomorrow and make some phone calls. Thanks guys.
make this guy a low ball offer

Thanks for the post but not the hight I'm looking for. Way too tall. Looking for square and shallow.
You could try Coast to Coast Aquariums. They are local. http://www.coasttocoastaquariums.com/
Thanks for that reply and link. I just sent them a email. So I hope they get back to me soon.
So I received a email this morning from Mike at BroadWay Glass Company in Marlton about getting some glss cut. I'll be asking for a 15x15x7. So when I make the call later this morning I'll let you guys know what he says. I'm real excitied to get my hands on a tank of that dimensions.
Broadway Glass is getting me a 15x15x7 for $20!!!! That's going to be sick. Can't wait to get the glass tomorrow and put this bad boy together.
