60ft but only 15ft wide how come? and what are you looking to building it with and where?
home or warehouse? i think cheapest method for builds that big would be concrete
with reinforced re-bar builds with front viewing panels but thats just my .02

Go big or go home lol. Probably can't see well through much more than 15ft after what 4" acrylic. That's two semi trailers parked side by side and still short 7ft. Mind boggling big. The local zoos main tank with walk through tunnel is probably only a few feet bigger than that.

Why 10ft deep, 6 ft would be more than enough and it would reduce the cost considerably for a guess

I'm wondering if Vince found a bunch of platinum or snow alligator gar hehe. Repurposing a pair of shipping containers would get you close, similar tanks are used for hauling water around so maybe able to hold it.
