Want to bulid 2000 gallon tank need to find a place that sells Acrylic sheets for resonable price any help would be great.........thanks all
 
I just looked on tapplatic.com . They have it up to 2" thick. The largest I saw were 2'/4' sheets up to 2" thick, But I would give them a call 1-800-246-5055 Im sure they have it larger then that, and if you know how many gal. your making it they should be able to tell you how thick you need it. If they cant get it larger then that let me know. I have a friend who works at a small business and they get huge sheets of it. I can ask him were they get it from. My email is daveolejnik@yahoo.com. Tapplastics should be ablr to help you out.

I don't think they have that size/thickness that required to build a 2000 gallon tank...........
 
Glasscages.com sells the sheets in upto 8' sections I think..
 
Opps still might be too small but might have a lead or be able to sell you larger sheets.
 
You should talk to Johnptc,he is in the articles on this site.He has alot of information on building large tanks and he is a awsome person to talk to.I don't think you need a 2" acrylic sheet,but I am not an engineer.
On my 15,000 gallon tank ,the biggest sheet is 6'x15' and is only 1.5" thick.
