This was a repair of a 10 foot long acrylic tank with a broken bottom.  The tank had to be craned into the customer’s home and then the walls were built around it.  Unfortunately we found out afterwards that the bottom was cracked and now needed to be repaired on site.  Here is the video of our team repairing that crack.  I apologize for the roughness of the video, it was originally not intended as an instructional video.

Custom hidden filtration in a see through aquarium

Monday, November 28th, 2011

This is a 210 gallon glass aquarium in a children’s hospital.  The tank is viewable from all 4 sides which required custom filtration to create a seamless aquatic environment.  If you look carefully you won’t see any of the filtration components. Those components look like they’re doing a great job though: healthy fish, crystal clear water and a happy customer!
