Are you willing to drive out to Gaithersburg, MD to build the tank?

No problem, usually I am free weekends.

You'll get the glass cut at a glass shop. It will take two visits to build the tank. The first visit would be when the tank is constructed, then the silicone would cure before the excess is trimmed and the interior seal is put down.

Great, about how much I would be expending and when can we start?

You'll spend around $3-400 on the glass most likely and will need to buy aquarium-rated silicone as well. I've used the stuff from BRS before with good results.

 

Your glass is going to be a minimum of 1/2" thick. I'd recommend cutting the height down to 20" for safety factor.

 

I can help you in a couple weekends. We can make a DIY tutorial.
