Acrylic Tanks/ Material Suppliers in the Vancouver area?

[Zmachine]

Does anyone know where to find either: A supplier for acrylic aquariums (perhaps custom?)
Acrylic materials and solvents for DIY?

I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this question. My apologies in advance if it's not.
Thanks,

Hey there are tons of places around, any or most plastics places and or fibre glass places as well. There is one place I use it's just north of Kitchener and Boundary Road in Burnaby. There is a tire shop, then something else and it's just north of there. They have scrap acrylics, full sheets, and everything inbetween. If you go in there with measurements they'll cut the stuff for you as well, about $1 per cut though. Solvents etc are available.

Sweet thanks! Before I move from a house to an apartment and sell all my tools, I want to build myself a new tank & sump appropriately sized for an apartment. Preferably I can make it out of acrylic so I can optionally keep coldwater species. (That way I can buy my livestock from Save-On-Foods :wink:).

Wow that sounds like an invitation to a BBQ to me.
