You can just get All-Glass to make it. It would be a 'custom' chop-down... a 75g cut short. Its actually pretty reasonable if you can find a dealer that will order it for you. I have had many tanks built by AGA that were custom for one reason or another... the prices are exactly what you pay for really... Like I had a 30g Breeder drilled for an overflow (but no overflow because I wanted to use my own rather than one of theirs), and two 3/4" bulkheads in the back, as well as black silicone... total cost: $129.

Also, a 120g 'cutdown' to 14" high for a frag tank, and double drilled in the center back for an overflow with dual pipes, and return lines at the top back corners... was a few hundred... but nothing crazy.

Normally, most places will tell you that AGA doesnt do custom, and they dont really... the tank needs to fit inside their plastic trim, so the footprint must match something of theirs... but the height, overflow placement, drilling, and silicone color is up to you.

Did you have to go through a dealer to get this done or call AGA yourself? I'd like a 40 breeder turned into a reef-ready like their larger tanks but with black silicone as well.

Dealer. You can call them to see which dealers in your area can do it though... its a minority of them that know they can do this in the first place.
