how about mdf for the floor (less bowing) and plywood for the sides?
My prototype model test tank will be built in the backyard at 50% scale 3' x 4' x 1.75' was seriously thinking of mdf and flexseal instead of plywood and epoxy like the usual build.

HDF is treated with a fire rating similar to Drywall and can be water resistant depending on specs , We have used it a lot for high abuse areas such as schools Public building and hospital corridors and so on Check with a Local Drywall commercial interior Supplier or contractor. they often will keep some in stock... ask for High impact Board.. but i ADVISE Against it...

The problem I have with plywood is that it is usually warped and twisted in large sheets. Even expensive 3/4" plywood goes all over the place.
