Glasscages.com.........and they are coming to tinely park this weekend...so if you order now they can deliver it to Il.....and go pick it up....
 
Glass cages is the cheapest for glass tanks, but for a tank that size, you're looking at about 700 lbs for a glass tank. That can strain a lot of friendships unless you hire a 5 man moving crew to handle it. If you go on E-Bay, and search for 300 gal Acrylic Aquarium, you'll find a company in CA that has the best prices, but shipping is a killer.

If you have any carpentry skills at all, I recommend building a plywood / glass tank. It's pretty easy. It's cheap, it's light and you can make it exactly the size you want. It can also be a lot better looking and very durable.

Send me a PM if you're interested, and I'll get you pointed in the right direction. I just built a tank that size and it came out beauitiful!
