- I recently announced that I'm working with Custom Aquariums on a 300 gallon display tank. In this video, I go to Wisconsin to visit their headquarters to see firsthand how their tanks, stand, and equipment are made.

Nice! I used to work at All-Glass Aquarium in Wisconsin in the large tank Sept for about 6 years. Built them up to 210gal. It was a fun job
2:54 where can I find good silicone like that? I need to reseal my whole 150 gallon aquarium from strach bc of a leak tank size: 4foot by 2ft by 30inches
Aparentemente vai ficar lindo esse aquário
How can I get a job like this?
هل من الممكن إرساله إلا العراق وكم السعر رجاء الرد🥰
No matter how many TH-camrs “hang out” at Custom Aquariums, I’ll never tire of seeing their warehouse operations. You sir have just served me up another hefty slice of happy pie😀 with this upload.
I cannot wait to see your behemoth aquarium and to eventually order one of my own! Oh Steve, patience is a virtue for which I’m sorely lacking🙃.
Please re-thank them for allowing you to share their factory. Many places won't!
I have retired from the aquarium trade with over 20 years in the aquarium business. This operation is VERY impressive!
Whats the best silicone sir??
How can you match the glass edges? With what kind of glue or with what else way? Or silicone is just the answer as usual?
These people have a really cool business and clearly they do a great job! Thanks for sharing the video.
I’m glad I’m not the only fan of glass as opposed to acrylic. Can’t wait to see it set up!
Beyond amazing . Never knew something like that exists . I wanna get my tank made here so bad . All I need is money 😂
same
Same
Man! This is freaking awesome!! I think I saw less than 5 staffs! They made it look so easy and calm. Those equipments and machines are brilliant!! Wow! I am impressed💙
There are a lot of staff we didn’t show. But it’s definitely a lean operation. All talented people.
Cool 👍 thanks for sharing info. Nevertheless still awesome video 💙
I work at a glass company and see this every day lol. In the process of building a 90 gallon tank at home right now. I like the trim that they use on their tanks being aluminum rather the plastic
Go 500 gallons 90 mope
What is the type/name of spacer at 2:54
your comment about drilling the holes was pretty funny! we cracked a 240 gallon trying it, then wound up with a Custom Aquarium tank ourselves.. neat place
Wow, what a professional set up! Nothing like this exist in Australia. Most of our tanks are built by backyarders.
Thank you for sharing this video...it was nice for Custom Aquariums to allow this tour...it was good to see the hardwork they put in to make what we call it as a Glass Box .....i subbed.
I also got my 317 gallon custom tank from them and very pleased with it!
So cool to see them build these beauties, thanks for sharing!
Lol. You also watching people making aquarium
Thank you for nonsense free clean clear vid. Its rare to see such now a days.
Yeah it's a dream factory where dreams come true, we get it ;)

God damn those big tanks look amazing!! Some day I will have the space to get one. Looking forward to following yours. Keep it real! 😀
Amazing...look forward to seeing this tank setup :)
This is a really cool inside look of how these are made. Thank you for sharing!
Gosh, this video is sooooooooooo good I wish it were longer!
I’ve been thinking about posting an extended version. Most people would have gotten bored if this had been longer but I also know that some people would love a long version.
@@StevePolandAquatics the shots are great, the voice over explains it really simple and we'll, it's a perfect combination!
Thanks, much appreciated
I am going to build my own thanks for the info 👍

Very cool brother! Thanks for sharing.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey buddy!
Lol.....Did I mention my backs been hurting real bad.

@@StevePolandAquatics Because for some weird reason my back began to ache while watching your video. Then when i saw your name on the crate, the spasms started...lol.
Cool !
I’m in LOVE 😍
Great video, thanks for sharing
Tank you for this video its awesome, 👍
I love their job.
What a beauty!
I wouldn't be able to sleep at night having such a large glass aquarium.
Super!
Great video 👍 THANK you
Wish it was like the Nestle tour and you got free samples at the end.
Hahaha
A big dodd of silicon in your hand.
Lol
I done some contract work at a Nestle plant several years ago and never got any samples of anything. They ripped me off.
That was very cool
That's so sick
Beautiful video like it waiting for next one
Hope you back to cichlids
I have a cichlid. Not going back to Africans
The silicone spacer that were kept between joint of 2 glass pannels.do they remove or they put silicone overlying the silicone spacer?
I wish I knew
Awesome & comical. Why funny? I sat down thinking of a better way to construct tanks and came across this and it's exactly what I decided was the best option. I'm not talking the machinery involved or tech but the end product. Because of the tech and machinery involved it's faster to produce than without it but can be done requiring patients and the question for anyone accepting the challenge to make such a tank is do you want one that won't blow apart or be ok with that. No, it's not affordable for the average fish keeper to purchase or maintaining it. One huge tank being filtered, heated, etc, is comparible to the expense of a moderate fish store expense in utility costs. That said, this is the way to build a tank aside from some one piece injected acrylic system involving the complexity of a custom mold and any one piece bottom and sides will still require bracing. How did I mentally come to the same idea being produced here? I used to be a glazer and worker with glass and metal frames.
I tell you,I've known for years mega tanks are the most fun. What I always hoped for?..that you could one day buy a tank the size of a room for a few hundred dollars..and spend the big money on fish and all the rest.
Are we ever going to see a breakthrough on affordable BIG aquariums?..some super substance that is strong clear and cheap but reliable, to manufacture?
One day I hope.
Robicie zajebistą robotę!🙃
Pretty cool. Looking forward to it arriving at your house. So we’re up to 300 gallons lol
Quite a cool video.. Enjoyed watching the assembly like that.. Definitely faster than my 1210 gallon system build. lol But that was all by myself.. :) Will surely look forward to seeing your set !
What kind of silicone sealant do they use?
Second ... cool behind the scenes
hi,what do they use to keep the glass panels from touching each other? do they use some kind of spacers?
I see a spacer used at 2.54
excellent jobs.... good luck & sell those by millions.... made in USA.
that was really cool thanks
i wish you can make a video on how ADA aquariums are made. they are so clean at the seams, they look like no silicone is used. they also use low-iron super clear glass.
I wish we have like this in my country because what i want always in my tank is custom size. And its hard for a manual builder sometimes to cut thick glass
cool my friend, I wish you happiness and health, greetings of success
Nice video built a few tanks myself
That’s How it’s done!
I'm confident to use this aquarium
Awesome video bro!
Thanks!
Wow... nice...
What type of Silicon bonding do they use please.
asi aquarium sealant black
@@Bifrost1107 thank you
wonderful !!
This just sealed the deal for me. Thank you for sharing!
Wow that’s awesome, great video, I wouldn’t mind working there, maybe the employees get free tanks! Lol
I can't get my head around how a lot of these tanks (at least this one had a frame/bracing) hold so much water together just using silicone
Awesome
Custom Quality!
Amazing Video Steve! Thanks for sharing! One question: Which silicone are they using to make the aquariums?
I think they would prefer that I not share that info
ASI aquarium silicone and they use the black variant.
WAHOU !!! Bravo ... 👏👏👏
The black silicon makes the tank look even more epic.
Nice. The unboxing at your end wouldn't be as good if we saw it going in the box initially :)
Cool video man
This was so cool to see, one of those things you wonder about. Well at least I wonder about it lol.
Nice aquariums
What are the largest dimensions you can accommodate?
Nice! My dream Tank!!! 10 ft
man I'm jealous
Pretty incredible. I've seen a plasma cutter on sheetmetal, which is similar to what they have for glass. Technology is crazy...
Love the vids keep em up.
Show how they make curved glass aquariums
You were not far from me! Next time stop over !
How much does the 200 gallon aquarium cost? Measures 200cm x 60 x 60 approximately.
Max do Embate if you go on their website it will say but probably $10 000
Great video!!! Thank you.
Muito bom.
Very good.
please help me. my 4ft 80gallon tank just burst on the side randomly. could this be because of the wooden floor and not having foam pad underneath
what silicone did they use ? was it momentive rtv 100 ?
Take a look at JT Enterprises bulk head fittings .
How do you provide a gap between glasses?
They call it spacers but it are silicone door stoppers that you can buy on Amazon
Wow wow wow 😍
Which glasses you are suing for making this type Gaint Aquarium or custom Aquarium ,,,,🤕???????
