Someone please understand my frustration

[Erised]

So today I was browsing though this website that sells stuff ... kind of like ebay, but dutch and better because its no auction.

Guess what I saw?

A 280cm x 88cm x 60cm .... = 1478.4 litres!!! Thats 390.5 Gallons!
And guess what? ... Its FREE!!!!!!

Unfortunatly, there is absolutely no way I can fit this into the house ... when trying the size in the livingroom, it pretty much took up the whole wall.

This is soooo frustrating. Its absolutely massive, it's free! You get filters + pump with it and everything ... and it just doesnt fit!

Sometimes I hate this hobby

Utrecht, middle of holland ... I'll look up the post for those that wanna try and figure out the dutch

When looking for it ... I cant find the post anymore Either I'm blind, or it's taken already and the post deleted ... whaaaaa!

Not sure about the biggest tank on the forum.....

...take a look at this thread posted by Dulcie in the Emergency section....

http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=87562

He/she claims to have a 6ft x 5ft x 4ft tank (just short of 900 US gallons) !!!!!

I have posted to query the measurements but not had a response yet!

*imagines to self if it is actually 6 x 5 x 4 and what one could do with that (apart from go snorkelling!!)*

That guy in the post you directed us to sounds like a troll. They only have 2 posts.

Also, if they had a tank that large, why would they bother with danios and small fish like that?

That's what I thought and is reason why I questioned the tank size .

lol

trust you Wolf!!

Thinking about it though.............a HUGE planted tank, nurtured by the likes of gf225, jimbooo etc etc (no offence to anyone not mentioned), with hundreds and hundreds of smaller fish would look absolutely amazing .

(Further thought...imagine having to try and catch just one danio/neon in a tank that size because it was sick or something!!!!!! . It takes me half an hour to catch one fish in my 30 gallon !!)

Put the tank in the backyard and start a Koi pond or have a pool party with 2 of your closest friends.
