    I need a piece of 3/8" glass that's at least 17 1/2" x 20" to repair my sump.  If you have a broken 75 or 90 gallon tank, let me know.  Turn that broken tank into cash!

    hey i'm not sure if my work can do 3/8" but i can call and ask, but we get an employee discount for cut glass, but we do mainly windows and door's and most is usually 1/4" stuff but i'll check for ya, thats outrageaous what they quoted you for glass, i was charged less than 20 for my 4 pieces of 1/4" glass for my sump at my local glass dealer. if i can make it work i''ll try and get it to you asap.

    Hey snowman, I should have updated this thread...I found a source for this glass. A member of the Iowa Aquaria club has a broken tank and I'm going to get the glass from them. He's a few hours away and I won't be able to get it for a while, but that's OK...I have changed my long term plans with the basement sump to include a short term plan using a small in-stand sump that I had on hand so that I can get things set up more quickly. Thanks for your offer...I appreciate your willingness to help me out.

    AJ you can build a killer plywood/epoxy sump if looks are not a issue? In the basement right? Watch the video, dont waste your time with viewing glass though...
