Wanted to see about building my own acrylic tank. If for nothing else then just the project of it. My brother works at a place that orders acrylic, but I’m curious if anyone knows if it would work. Can’t find much information about it. Brand name is Sungard weatherable polycarbonate.
 
Polycarbonate is used for signage and is not made for aquarium use.

 
I'm wanting to build my own frag tank. Where is good place to buy the acrylic?

I was told that Polycarbonate is the preferred material for making an aquarium lid - because it will not warp/sag like acrylic can?
