I am looking to buy some blue acrylic (like they use for the back of acrylic tanks) so that I can build a surface skimmer/output to plumb a sump into my aquarium. I want to do this to clean up the look of my aquarium since I think it looks like there is too much stuff in there. I figure if I make an overflow box and hide the pump in it I can do all of filtration in a sump and have just the overflow and return output in the tank.

Anyone know where I can get this stuff at a reasonable price?

Tried that, which is why I was asking if anyone knew of a place to get it at REASONABLE prices. Everyone here is horribly overpriced. Thanks for the idea though.
