I have had enough with waiting on prime aquariums now. They have ignored my emails and I keep seeing comments on their Facebook from people who ordered in October or earlier (I ordered 15th november) who haven't had their aquariums yet. So I am unlikely to see mine anytime soon, I'm not prepared to wait any longer I don't have the patience haha.
So I have decided my best option is to cancel with them and go elsewhere.
Could I please have some recommendations.

Thanks for the suggestions. Yeah like bigben said ndaquatics is a no go unfortunately. It's a shame I'm sure they were good once upon a time.
I will have a look in to the clearseal. Will snowaddict be notified of the thread as he has been tagged?

Have you asked at your local Maidenhead Aquatics? That’s where I got one form - really happy with it too.

Ah okay I hadn't even thought of maidenhead aquatics I assumed they wouldn't do that. I will send them a message and see what they say. Thanks

Like Paul said, I went here too for my 'big one'. Really nice quality and brought it up the stairs, around the house, through the kitchen and put it on the stand too! Winner.

You could also try Premier Aquatics as Ste from there now builds lots of tanks and fast turn around too. Depends if you're in the North West as I'm not sure whether he does deliveries/ how far, etc.
