When I started yak fishing everything was DIY. For my first tank I thought about what the perfect tank would be. I even talked to a guy that makes tanks for sports boats. I had a cobra FnD so size n weight didn't really matter. Tank was 8 gallons and round. It was low n wide so the volumn was usable to the fish. (Fish dont circle vertically). I built a combing on top so I could run the tank to the top with out water sloshing out. Pump and stand pipe were out side the tank. Pump pulled throuh a scupper and stand pipe went over the side. I had an adjustable inlet at the top to control current spin and a drain at the bottom so scales would flush out. Best tank I have ever used or seen. Kept every thing from little chovies to big mack alive and well all day I switched to a OK prowler 15 and the tank was way too heavy. Wish I still had that tank. Hope this may help if you want to buildva dream tank. Mike
