Thanks for the info guys,
I decided to build some myself.  The custom tank companies are building them out of 1/8" aluminum.  I decided to use 12 guage as to save on wieght.  All together, the material was about $200.00.  One tank is almost done.  This thin of material is not easy to weld, but the tanks are only about 5 lbs heavier than the fiberglass ones that I pulled out.

Do you have pics of your progress? What welder are you using?

I will get some pics up ASAP.  As far as the welder, it is a Miller syncrowave TIG.  We welded up the 12 ga and it is to thin, so after finding out that the pros use 1/8", we have one tank done and the second is bent everything threaded and taped, fittings welded and just needs to be welded out.
