ryanjury Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 That is an odd sized tank. So it is either 3.54x800x1000cm or 3.54x800x1000mm a bit hard to tell without units and think there was a typo in the first measurement.. Either way if you are doing a big tank that height you would need to use at least 15mm glass to get a safety factor just above 2, thicker to get it over the recommended minimum of 3, meaning a very very expensive tank.

phoenix44 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 If you mean 3.54m and the rest in mm - that is a large tank. Only thing I'd keep an out for is the RT gourami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisP Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 My guess its a 350x80x100 CM tank if its going to hold that many big fish... Sounds Epic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henward Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 hope it looks good i would buy 5 silver arowana and get rid of the red tail gourami taht size im sure you can do well with a aro comm:D red tail giant gourami will be agro, more liekly than not,w hen its bigger, and its teeth develop, you will have dead oscars and dead stuff. taht tank is massive, heating that will require 4 jagers. plumbing it to a heavily planted is cool. be careful, quarantine big monsters like arowanas before going into the discus system - arowanas are hardya nd resi.lient and immune to most diseases most fish die of. but in saying that, good luck! sounds exciting! mosnter tanks are always a treat - you can put so much fish in that, i reckon 30 clown loaches:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
