Ugh


i wish i had this tank...



If you dont mind me asking, how much have you invested in it so far?

And how much a /m does it cost about?


maybe ill get one like it myself :D:D:D:D

There is soo much possibility with this much real estate.
I feel like every corner of the tank is a different "aquarium" with its own, style and charm.
Perhaps I should let the scape deteriorate so that George Farmer decides to give it a makover ;)

The costs so far are aprox £6.5k. Monthly costs shouldnt exceed £60.
Its arguably a lot for a fish tank, but not for an all year round indoor tropical garden ;)

Let me know if you want a further breakdow of roughly where this money went.
I've details somewhere.

Also, VERY important considerations which made this project possible are:
- im not on a water meter
- i have tank water supply and drain plumbed into house waste
- my wooden floor is fully supported to take 2.5+ tonnes of tank glory

Almost forgot to mention
Found this little guy yesterday!
I love bronze cories, they just dont give a damn about ammonia spikes and rotting fish.

What fish are you planning to keep in this or still not decided? Are you gona replace the rummy nose? Obviously not all in one hit again, regardless of the size of the tank I don't think it was ready for 300 fish Due to how new the setup is.

Starting to look great now, really filling it and maturing nicely!

Cheers

Thanks Dutch!

Peoples jaws tend to drop when they see the Beast. More to do with size, than my scaping skills I think.
Pictures simply don't convey scale.

If anyone here is ever in Liverpool, pm me if you want to see it.
Least I could do for all the advice Ive received.

Thanks for reading,

Just wow!!!!!!..... I think I would seriously consider selling an arm, the dog and one of the kids for a tank this size (the Mrs would probably have to go too as she’d never allow it)... amazing!!!!

Looks great! A shoal of red shoulder angelfish would look amazing in there. Or maybe a wild type discus.

Sorry just thinking of all the possibilities you could have lol! A massive South American community would look amazing.

Cheers

Maybe one day, when I give up on growing a massive RCS colony.
