I am looking to start a mudskipper aquarium. In my reading I have found that the 20g long I planned to use is not enough to keep 5-6 of the little guys like I would like. Because of this I am looking to find/build/have built a tank that has a more square footprint. For example 30" x 30".

I would much rather buy an aquarium manufactured by a company like all-glass etc. Are there any aquariums that would fit this description? If not what is a good guess for how much this would cost to have it built. I am willing to build it myself if need be but I dont have any experience building the tanks themselves just the stands/hoods so if it comes to that any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
 
I called up some glass places and they all acted like I was the strangest call they had ever received and offered no help. I really have my heart set on a mudskipper tank. I currently have a standard 55g and 20g long. I can't seem to get in touch with anyone that can cut glass to build a tank with myself. I really don't prefer the 55g standard as I see it as very thin for its length but I guess it is better than a simple 20g.

Will either of the current tanks be acceptable for 6~(I can settle for less if need be in the 20g) indian mudskippers? I prefer to use the 20g as I have newer equipment for it. Am I out of my mind to think I can even get 4 of the guys in that small of a tank? I could spring for a new tank like a 30 or 40 breeder but I'd rather save the money if possible.
