What thickness and dimensions are you looking for? What country are you in?

I believe Glass cages sells acrylic by the sheet. I would also try local suppliers.

I want to do a DIY custom acrylic top for my 90-gallon. I agree, crazy high prices but here is a website I found that I may buy from.

Thanks for the replies I know I need to get cell cast but by the time I buy the sheets it’s almost as much as a new one ha!!

Please take a look at how we do it. We can offer two options for you. Precision CNC machined DIY kits or CNC Pre-Cuts™. These are not simple saw cut pieces. They are machined to plus minus 2 millimeter tolerances which is critical for good welds. Please take a look >>> https://tenecoraquariums.com/collections/diy-tank-kits

And here >>> https://tenecoraquariums.com/pages/cnc-pre-cut-sheets

I don't know how big you are trying to build. We will be adding at least 48 more sizes in the next couple of weeks. Probably something close to what you were looking for.

All the best.
