My new Project

[Reef Guy11]

Hey Guy's, Well When I Frist moved back to the Desert I went from a 90 gallon Tall to a 135 gal. long That is 6'x18"x24". Now I am looking at a new project, Well it a Tank that you can Veiw from 3 sides i will build the Stand and the Sump. The tank is going to be a Custom Tank, with the Internal Overflows on the side that will butt up against the wall. It will be 54"x24"x30" tall which is a 202 gal tank. Well I got the Cost of the tank today by my LFS today for Glass it will Cost 730.00 and for Acrylic 1,550.00 8O just for the tank, Well it look like Darrell will have to save up his money for this one. So Is This a cheap price on the tank or what can i find it cheaper

You could always price the glass and put it together yourself.

Some glass shops will cut holes if it's a flat piece of glass.
silicon can hold the sides together.
I think Oceanic will sell the trim if you realy want it.

You might try contacting some acrylic/glass shops and find out what they'd charge for the raw materials and cutting. Probably save you some big $$$, but then again, no warrenty...
