I don't know much about saltwater tanks
but I have worked in the swimming pool business for 6+ years
sand filters normally have something like this (usually a bunch) to keep sand where it needs to stay
the slits are too small for sand to pass through
you could probably just drill a hole and silicon one in place

It should run you about 10 or 20 bucks. It depends on if the cutter wants to charge you the whole sheet. Theyre usually 24x48. I would think its about 10 bucks..
You'll have to stand around for an hour trying to find a cutter, but..

Sometimes petco will have a dollar per gallon tank sale when they are overstocked. I picked up a nice 40 gal for $40. You should call ahead and ask.
