What do I need to know about replacing a toilet tank?
The manufacture date as well as model number, etc. should be inside of the tank somewhere. If it was manufactured not too long ago, and it is a name brand, then chances are that you would be able to find a replacement tank. If it is older, and/or it isn’t a name brand, then it may be better to replace the whole thing.
Can you buy a toilet bowl and tank separately?
While all of the other hardware that goes into a toilet is normally available as aftermarket parts, I have never seen tanks and bowls sold separately, so I’m guessing if you can get them that way at all it’s going to be special order, and I would not be the least surprised to find it more than the cost of a whole new toilet.

This is usually impractical. An entire new toilet with matching parts is often going to cost less (and much more reliably fit and work together correctly) than sourcing a part for a specific older toilet.

You will likely not find a compatible tank or bowl if you have an older model toilet. With new developments and increasing array of toilet offerings, manufacturers discontinue models and replace past offerings with improved units.
