I went to Chic Lumber to order 3/4" plywood for my plywood tank build. I started talking with a worker and told him what I was doing. He didn't seem shocked as he has heard of plywood tanks before. He brought me over to a display for AZEK. It's cellular PVC sheets. He gave me two corner boards (Two 3" x 5" boards mitered together) and this stuff is strong. I can't bust the two apart. Has anyone else heard of this stuff, or better yet made a tank out of this stuff? No need to use fiberglass and epoxy resin as this is 100% water proof. Now the bad news. A 1" x 4' x10' piece will run $300. Much more than Plywood at the same size.
The guy at the store said he has a customer that has used this to build fish tanks to transfer fish from his hatchery. No problems so far. I need to locate this guy.
