Alrighty, new plan (hopefully won't change anymore). The tubs/pools are:
-300 gallon Rubbermaid stock tank
-3 15' Intex pools
-10' Intex pool
-4 of these 800 gallon tubs (
http://www.diversifiedpondsupplies.com/round-flat-bottom-tank-800-gallon)
-12' Intex pool
The tanks are:
-325 gallon tall
-2 280 gallon "half dogbone" tanks
-700 gallon "full dogbone" tank
-2 90 gallon tanks
-2 180 gallon tanks
-40 gallon
-300 gallon
-75 gallon
-100 gallon octagon
-1000 gallon
-4000 gallon
In addition to those, there will be a 24x11x3 concrete pond with a viewing window (mainly for the kids) that holds a hair under 6,000 gallons. In addition to those, there will eventually be either an outdoor pond or an indoor swimming pool, not sure yet - I like the swimming pool idea to make care easier and so that it's easier to see them and you can even get in the water with them, but this will be the ultimate tank, and any fish that can't live in the tanks above will be moved into here (alligator gar, arapaima, etc). I've got time to think about this.
So what about fish? Well, I have a pretty big list, some of it is set in stone about where it is going to be housed and some of it is not. In one of the 90 gallons, there will be a senegal bichir, a lima shovelnose catfish, 6 mystery snails, and 3 discus. The other 90 gallon will house a flagtail, black ghost knifefish, and I will grow out a nile perch in there to eventually move up to the big body of water (whatever it may be). The 180 gallons will have a silver arowana in one and a clown knife in the other (both may be moved if they get too massive). Next, I have a list of large catfish, along with a few other large fish, that I would like to have separated into a few large tanks. These fish will hopefully be split up to live in the 6,000 gallon indoor pond, along with 2 of the 800 gallon tubs and the 12 foot intex pool - they can be moved into more if it's absolutely necessary, but for now let's assume there's no huge pool (like the swimming pool). The list is:
3 TSN
7 RTC
8 Marble catfish
3 Lima shovelnose catfish
2 Albino channel catfish
11 Iridescent shark catfish
1 Piraiba
6 Niger catfish
1 Tigrinus catfish
1 Goonch catfish
1 Jau catfish
1 Granulosus catfish
4 Megalodorus irwini catfish
5 TSN/RTC hybrids
1 TSN/Marble catfish hybrid
1 Giraffe catfish
1 Sailfin pimelodid
And to live alongside these guys, 1 red belly pacu, 2 black pacu, and 5 giant gouramis. Obviously some of these guys need to be moved to something much bigger (goonch, jau, piraiba, etc) but they've got a while to grow out in these tanks.
Next thing I've decided is to keep some goldfish and koi indoors, which would be spread out in one of the 280 gallon tanks and the 300 gallon stock tank, along with the smallest thing that the rest of them could be kept in. For this, there will be a shubunkin goldfish, a black moor goldfish, an oranda goldfish, and 17 butterfly koi. I would like for some of the koi to be in the 280 gallon and the 300 gallon, and then the rest in something else, and the goldfish can be wherever.
So the 800 gallon tubs. 2 of them will be for catfish. That means the other 2 are for stingrays. At first, they will be split up, one holding either 3 black diamond leopoldis and 1 motoro, or just 3 black diamond leopoldis (obviously the other one will have the other choice here). The other 280 gallon tank will be used to grow out 5 more black diamond leopoldis, as well as 2 more motoros, until they outgrow it and are ready to live with the bigger guys, meaning eventually the 800 gallon tubs will each have a total of 7 stingrays in them (ones that get too big can be moved to another tank).
I'll post the next things in a new post, just because I don't want this to be too long.
