pastelball-probably looking for a 4'x8' sheet...however I havent finished the plans yet for the sump and it may or may not require more or less. Plus I still havent completely ruled out useing a glas tank and installing baffles, etc to create the sump.

Everyone-Thanks for the info on the store and hours.

A glass sump will be cheaper for ya.
I DIY my sump with the help of a good friend and would never spend the money for the acrylic again.

Buy glass and spend the remainder on the glass holesaws to drillit if you wish.

Granted acrylic sure is pretty nice to look at but I would rather spend my time in front of the tank and not below it.

It's clearly your choice but this is my $.02

Good Luck
