1200 gallon cost

[h2so4hurts]

Yeah, driftwood, I just built a 96x36x36 (500g) for just about $3k with a 1.25" side window and a 1.5" front window. You can build this size for cheap if you're willing to put in the work.

Maybe I’ll wait until my next house and add it into the mortgage... hah

Maybe I’ll go for the same size as you for now and do the larger one in like ten years

I'll post a build thread for mine in a few days. Had to get 6 posts before I could link to pictures... You could do a 1200 gallon tank for $5k easily. I fiberglassed my entire tank so that added a bit to the cost but I don't want this thing to ever leak so I went there extra mile.

My 1000gal tank built out of 2x4s, plywood, and fiberglass w a 1.5" 4'x8' acrylic viewing panel cost me less than $4000. Built everything myself though.

Do you have a build thread?

Don't know where you are but imports from China are possible to almost anywhere for great prices.

They make beautiful glass and acrylic tanks. Standard size panels are up to 8m long and you can get bigger if you place custom orders.

Any places you recommend?

West coast US I would love a recommendation as well.

No. I didn't do one. But if u go to YouTube and search energy vampires 2700gal build, I based mine from his for the most part.
