Those are nice dimensions for a 150 gallon tank. , Sorry I don't have one to sell, but I don't think that is one made commercially . They all seem to go for the difficult to light, narrow, tall tanks.

Was that a custom tank or a stock tank that they carry? Thanks for the response.

I would guess that is a custom tank because I have never seen anything like that when I visited Gold aquariums. BTW the guy who builds my tanks would be happy to build you something like you asked for. Not only that, but it would be new glass, not used glass like other tank builders use.

Who is the guy who builds your tanks. I am just lazy. I have 3 out of 5 pieces cut for my custom tank and I'm trying to track down a big enough piece for the bottom and a small piece for an end. I've been hunting around for used 1/2" glass and can't find anything. The bottom and end piece can be scratches to bits for all I care because they aren't viewing panes. All the 1/2" stuff is tempered that I've come accross. I've basically almost given up looking and seeing if there is a cheap used tank out there... Anyway, enough rambling....

Hi Bob
would his name be Gary?

Dez
that was a custom tank because i want a shallow tank so it would be easier to light.
