I'm pretty sure the OP is talking about building an aquarium out of plywood.

I feel that the cheap stuff isn't a good idea, depending on the size of the tank the plywood thickness would come into play. I wouldn't exactly cheap out on the type of plywood. I would think structural or marine plywood in higher grades would be a good starting block.

I don't have experience putting one together, but I've heard about the idea, just haven't done the research into it.

I think an important aspect would be the sealing of the plywood as well.

Good luck

The "best type" is going to be marine grade plywood of the thickest size you can find. However, that is also going to be your most expensive option.
