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.

Plumbing and sump are complete.  Time for a leak test...
