i need a fuge for my tank. I have bought 2 so far that either cracked or leaked. and no one else has one to sell.
i guess i need to make one but have no idea where to get a tank big enough that i can drill holes in.
is some one has an idea where i can get one and have plans for one please help me out.
 
what size??

You can get cheap tanks from a variety of places, but youll need to make sure the glass is not tempered if you are going to drill it.
 
I was using a 40 gallon (actually high 30s, 30 x 15 x 16 I believe, it's a strange size) and when I went to a trigger system sump I just parked the tank outside on my balcony. It will need 1) to be serious cleaned as I don't have access to a garden hose 2) baffles put in. It has a piece of plexiglass that hangs on the side of the tank and allows your return to run through it and holds a filter sock if you desire (I paid like $75 at DNA for that). I have a 30" PC set that I was using for a sump light, and an unnamed protein skimmer that was adequate at best for my 75 gallon. The 40 gallon is drilled for an external pump but capped. I could let all this go for $50. As I said, it came straight from under my tank to the balcony so it is dirty to say the least, but a good hose and razor blade will take care of that in no time.

I have a 30 gallon that has a hole already in the bottom and 3 sides painted blue. You would need a 2" bulkhead for the hole in the bottom. I can sell it to you for $25 if you can come and get it. I am in SW Dallas near 408 and I 20.
