Really people, the orginal poster had to be pulling your fins. Question 1: Who would give away (i.e., for FREE) a 3,500 or 4,000 gallon tank? Something that big would have cost thousands. Question 2: How the heck can anyone MOVE a tank that big?

It's a nice dream -- to be given a massive tank. But that's all this guy was posting...a dream.

Absolutely!

But how would you clean a tank like that? You'd have to get into your swimtrunks and use a snorkel. Someone mentioned that a tank that size wouldn't need water changes. Thank goodness for that!

3,500-4,000 gallons seems almost too big. I'd be happy with something smaller...say, a mere 1,000 gallons!

" 3,500 gallon tank - what to put in?! "

Funny, if I had the time and money to afford and maintain such a large tank I would know EXACTLY what to put in it.

It's such a difficult decision to make. You get 1 tank that big ever, and you only ever want to set it up once, so get it right first time.

At that size, could you put bigger fish with smaller? Presumably it would be so big you would be able to have an environment where smaller fish would be able to breed before the larger fish could eat them? For instance, you might be able to keep Guppies and Oscars together. Sure the mollies would get eaten (survival of the fittest) but enough would be produced for the tank to never effectively "run out" so to speak, especially if there were plenty of hiding places.

actually nothing, I would sell it for a great deal of cash

If this is serious then here are a few pointers.

I would treat this as a small koi pool & use sump filtration, say a 6ft sump & a strong pond pump to circulate. To heat you could use a gas powered heat exchanger. To light it would have to be a row of low powered halides, or if you live in a bungalow a translucent roof!!

15tons of water, your'e looking at the weight of a lorry!!
