I've built a 100 gallon and a 76 gallon plywood tank. They have been running for a year now with no problems at all.....i used the Garf.org site for both plans. If you do this and use resin, make sure to use fibreglass tape on all seems....just gives a better seal....good luck and pm me any questions you may have and I can send you some pictures.

Here is another site where a guy builds a plywood tank

Also check out his tank blog on keeping cold water organisms:

Wood makes good sense for a large coldwater tanks since you will probably insulate four sides to keep in the cold anyways.
