    I do believe it was a custom tank.It only had one overflow at one end.I had to drill it at the other end and made a matching overflow as well.which I accidentally broke after it was together.I love that weldon cement.It really saved me as I just glued it back together and then water tested it so I knew if I was going to flood if the power went out.That is some really awesome cement!!
