IMO, use concrete block and face it with brick if brick is what you want to see. Bricks are typically 4"w, so your tank walls would only be 4" thick. Not enough to hold back that much water. You'll also have better luck getting a sealing material to cling to block vs brick. Check out my thread below called "building a 1000 gal concrete block tank" too. :D
