that tank is amazing. It is the king of all tanks. It is prob the largest privately owned tank in the world.
Thanks for the kind words.
My intention or desire was never to possibly have the largest home aquarium. It was only to provide my larger fish a suitable sized tank for them and allow me to keep Arapaima. I had owned them in the past but had to keep them in indoor ponds with only brief periods in the summer in my outdoor ponds.
I am sure there are many people who have larger tanks but prefer to remain silent. I actually have been told that there are other hobbyists who claim to have the largest home aquarium on the Animal Planet TV show.
I only did this thread because of Neoprodigy asking me to in 2005 (11 years after I built the big tank in 1994). I was just amazed the tank still held and presently still does hold water.
