FWIW
I used RDS. They have made a boatload (pun most certainly intended) of Aqua tanks over the years and mine was very good quality. Very easy to work with but I actually went to the shop and brought in my old tank but....

They built the new one to my spec locations on length, fill/vent/gauge locations.
