Default Special Tank

I'm looking for at least a 40G tank for my sump, however, it has to be within 12.5 inches in width because of the way my stand is built. If anyone has one or knows of an inexpensive way of getting one please let me know. Thanks.

I'd prefer not to go rubbermaid unless I have no choice.

Make one out of acrylic. It's easy.

I was just told that rubbermaid was a lot harder to work with when building baffles and whatnot. I'm open to any recommendations though.[/quote]

I would really recommend building one from Acrylic. Jack and Wendell really helped out on the one I (Jack) just built.
If you want the contact info for supplies and stuff let me know

Default sump

ya, that would be great. I need to know the best most cost effective way. I've never been one to sacrifice quality because of money but I'd like to keep it low cost if possible. How much would they charge to build me one do you think. They're building me a skimmer as we speak.
