New Tank Help

[OscarBaby]

Around the start of term my dad brought back to life my 55 gal square tank, and he got these two beautiful Oscar babies, two Green terror babies, a red tailed shark, and an albino pleco... Not realizing how big they all get. Long story short I'm going to build a new tank that's much bigger for these babies, and I'd love some size suggestions if that's alright

Welcome to MFK I suggest you build a tank atleast 300 gallons tbh the 55 gallon is going to get small quick so don't prolong the build.

First or second floor? 300 gallons in an apartment might be trouble

Second floor, but planning to make it pan wide to distribute the weight, even though the entire building is max concrete

A 75 gallon is the biggest I can single hand up a flight of stairs. Acrylic would be nice for moving around.

Most doors openings are 29.5" with the hinges removed.
