Default Any tank builders?

I'm thinking of getting a betta tank made up where they are seperated but the water can still flow through and the water cycles back over the tops and drips back in as a slow flow to keep it filtered and heated without having a filter and heater in each small tank like the display racks in the shops but with bigger secions. Anyone got any good ideas or examples or know any cheap tank manufacturers?
Cheers, Gnipper

Gnip

might be more worthwhile if you were to either a) work out calcs and sizes and stuff including thickness your glass requires. then go somewhere such as glass making company, failing that, you can get your own aquariums BUILT by some of the normal brands but you might be better off googling it mate

Give me (PM) the specification for the tank and i will try my glass supplier.
They do custom build aquariums of any size shape and design.
I am in London though so the shipping may be more than the tank.

I suggest a bottom or mid vent of 5mm with no gravel.
A weir design will encourage them to jump over as bettas do.
