I’m 6’1”... that should give you a reference for the size of the tank! That’s my brother and longest running fish buddy who’s helping me with the madness!! ;)

Oh man, that's awesome ..... and a 'never plan to move' tank LOL.
We have a 9 year window to get our kids through school here so it's going to be fun!! Oh and worse case I rent the concrete saw for a day, cut the walls, fold them into the hole...pour the new floor over the top, pad, carpet and we are out of here!! ;)

How do you plan to pay for their education with a tank that big? ;Smug

It will have all the right filtration and I will keep up on the cleaning schedule with help from my kids (who can’t wait to swim in it) Yes, I have a collection of large tangs growing up in the holding systems!! Can’t wait to let them explore the big tank when it’s done!!
