Default Custom tanks ?

Recently my center brace on my 90 gallon pulled free from the silicon. I have fixed it But it has me thinking It might be time for a upgrade to a larger tank. Does any one know of someone who does custom work in the lower mainland ? I was thinking of a rimless tank 54x26x26 not sure how manny gallons that would work out to. I have looked at a few of the local stores but haven't really seen any tanks that jump out at me .

Here is a link to Reef Central that has a number of online calculators (on the left side of the page) including tank volume - this makes it easy.

H2O aquariums has built two tanks for me in the past, both very well done. I used to buy them through Ocean Aquatics, but since they're shut down I'm not sure who they're selling through. I still have a way to reach them from my last build, if you'd like I can try to get some contact info for you.
