Glasscages.com was first to give me a quote for a 30 x 10 x 10 tank with a plate glass bottom and all Starphire sides $133 and I would need to pick it up Saturday in Baltimore. The GLA 91-B is a little longer but close to the same and $127.55 delivered, most of the work is finishing the edges on each sheet but I thought I'd save atleast $20 and be able to say I built the tank, but I didn't think it would be $5 more.

I'll keep checking.
Sincerely,
Tim

Funny how that works sometimes! Good luck on your quest!

I've been reasearching how to finish my own glass, I may just forget the Starphire glass and buy plate glass from the hardware store. If you have a link on the subject I could use it, finishing that is!
