My LFS has the most gorgeous 280g display tank. I really looked at it today. There are several types of Rainbows in there. I had no idea some got that big. Just beautiful all colored up. And who knew Congo Tetras got *that* big??? The males with their flowing fins. I never knew they were so pretty. <sigh>

To have unlimited space, money, and time to put together something like that. It's planted up so nice too.

Anyone here have some ultra big tanks you can post pics of so those with big tank envy can get our fix?

P.

everyone goes through this stage, dont worry, soon you will realise how small a 280 is, my suggestion buy lake front property.

California doesnt' get hurricanes, and tsunamis are pretty rare.

One of the lfs around me has a great 200g or so Australian Natives tank, it's amazing! To say the least

They may be rare, but it only takes one to kill you, or worse, ruin your expensive 280 gallon fish tank.

Actually there was a huricane in cali when all those were going through florida last year. You could just move to the desert build a huge lake and act like you're at the beach

You could go to Canada

 

[platyfreek]

[Snailguy101]

Well then we can all go to canada and pick apples?

 

[a1wonder]

BC (best apples in canada) has cottage lots?
Nicest tank around here is the one at the Casino 2000gallons all salt baby.

Hmmm..... Any idea how I can heat this enough to create a big outdoor tropical pond???

Size: Lake Tahoe is 22 miles long, 12 miles wide, and 72 miles of shoreline. Lake Tahoe’s greatest depth of 1,645 feet makes it the third deepest lake in North America and the tenth deepest in the world.

Volume: The water in Lake Tahoe could cover a flat area the size of California by 14 inches. This is enough to provide everyone in the United States with 50 gallons of water per day for 5 years. And believe it or not, the amount of water that evaporates from the surface of Lake Tahoe every year could supply a city the size of Los Angeles for 5 years.

Clarity: Tahoe’s waters are among the purest in the world at 99.7% pure. A white dinner plate can be seen 120 feet below the surface with little trouble.

Temp: During the summer months the upper 12 feet of water forms a layer that can warm to 68 degrees F, but below depths of 700 feet during the winter the temperature remains a constant 39 degrees F.

The lake our Cabin was on was the second cleanist lake in MN, and it was the 5th Deepest. (Excluding Lake S.)
