    There is an old saying "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, then baffle them with bulls*!%" Just because people throw money at them for fake decor tanks doesn't say much.

    I looked at their site and there isn't even a hint of cost for anything. I'm going to submit for a quote and see what I get. Those fake coral pieces are anywhere from a couple of thousand to over $20,000.00 per section.

    Granted they do amazing acrylic work, that I can't take away from them.

    I live in Vegas and have dealt with them personally on several occasions. They actually are in the process of expanding their live stock section adding several new tanks. As for their cost, they are very very heavy on their prices. Nick quoted me $1600 for a standard 135g with 2 built in corner overflows. Blah blah. From another local reef club member who was speaking to brett said he stated himself that he was little upset with how the show is being taped, I was told the show is heavy on scripts with very little actual "reality" taking play. None the less, I can't wait to see there livestock section once completed!

    I have pics I took when I was there if anyone is interested.


    It's not what you think!!!

    Actually, no. Those 3 rows of cabinet frames will be holding stock tanks. The frame above is for suspending the lights.
