Now That's a Fishtank!

I only wish I had a house big enough to support this 2,500 gallon tank that Tangster set up at Richmond Aquarium in Virginia when I was overseas last week.

 

Sweet!!!
See if you can get him to post the specs.

Its 20x5x6 ft in size I have a 250 gall fuge and a 400 gal sump. A ETSS dual tower commercial pro skimmer and a 15,000gph hr pool pump for the internal recirculating plumbed in on 2. 3 inch bulkheads on the bottom and center of each end panel to the suction inlet of the pump you may be able to see the 1.5 inch drops from the 3 inch main feed rom pump. I put 2 drops behind each overflow box and then 4 1.5 inch outlet Then a 8,000 gph 2hp main pump fed overhead on 2in main lateral to the 6 tee that drop in along the entire length of the tank you maybe can see them also ? I have a 3,000 1.5 hp pump for the skimmer.. that sets up beside the close end of the tank.. All the black wood you see will be replaced as I progress along with the set up.


I'm enclosing the entire top and adding 1,500 CFM fans and vented outside in the summer /winter via a temperature/moisture control sensors that control and run elect driven dampers and exhaust fans and a 5 hp chiller is going up on the building roof next to the building A/C condensers.. I'll be changing out the panel box to 400 amps as my coral aquaculture center currently shares the breaker box. And It will have 10 1,000 watt M/H and 10 400 watts also.. But until I can upgrade the service the 12 250 M/H will have to suffice.. It will be another yr before its completely set up..

You da Man Tangster! Bet that was cool setting something up like that.

WOW! I bet there are some pretty impressive fish in there!

 

That should be illegal!!! NOT fair to be able to have a tank that complex and large!
And I was just getting ready to go scuba diving in my 125 gallon reef tank thinking it was plenty big enough...until you proved me wrong!(hahaha)
