You must have been good this year!  A whole lot better than a lump of carbon!
It costs HOW much?!

Good looking frag tank. Where did you purchase this tank from, can you share the website or did you have it made?

thanks,
RW

Rick,
Thanks, I got it from advancedacrylics.com.  It wasn't cheap.  I didn't find any good deals on acrylic tanks and am not too confident on building my own.  Merry Christmas to me :)
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas too.
