Awesome tank! I like your sump set up (and everything else about your tank).

Would you ever buy or try to build a fish tank bigger then 450 gallons?

Oh yeah! Already planing my next tank. I would love to buy one used but i'm looking in the 900 gallon range next. Not too many very large used tanks out there. Something like 10X3X4 or 10X3X5 I don't want anything deeper than 3'.

Another plan (haven't shared with wife) is to build an outside pond the butts up against the house. Then cut out the basement wall and put an acrylic window in to view the pond from the inside. Possibly enclose the pond in a green house/conservatory type building to enjoy year round. Something in the ball park of 10K gallons lol

I know

Ah, Angel fish? No, I don't keep my Aro with my Angles. My 360 has the Angles and my 450 has the Black Arowana.

I bet they could be kept together in a deep tank with lots of vegetation, wood, and rocks on the bottom for the Angles to hide in. The Arowana would mostly stay at the surface so the chances of problems would be slim. Same with Discus and Arowanas also. Dang that would be a nice set up!
