phat, get to the tank and get the dimensions and compare it to the various ones Moeller makes. This is their site with dimensions, click on diagram for even more info.

See which ones will fit back in place easily.
Then find the Moeller numbers (in this case that 55 gallon is 032555) and compare the tanks cost as to your needs.
For instance (from the above mentioned site) the 55 gallon Moeller 032555 is $363.35 but a 60 gallon Moeller 032560 is $519.19.
Here is a hold down kit by Moeller

but depending on the situation I may be inclined to be a little more inventive, such as bradford did.

I put the same tank in my boat. I foamed it in just on the bottom and sides.

thanks pete, after reading your original post, i'm not sure if the moeller will fit my cavity. mine is an 86. it is located just ahead of the splashwell, then the fishbox. like the pics nymack has in your thread. is that the way yours is laid out .

yea, just went out & measured my tank hatch, its 44" x 31", so i guess a plastic off the shelf is not available.

Hope this works. If it does, these are the specs.

thanks cam, that's the one i need.

just talked to the folks at rds in perry, they have one on the shelf, $470.00 , aluminum.
would have rather gone plastic, but haven't been able to locate one.
