My home 21 feet long concrete aquarium

[Rob Bob]

Do you plan on personally doing the maintenance yourself or will you pay a service to do it for you?

Allthought I have many people around me, I still like to have the control of the waterparameters.

It's also a hobby I chose for.
I realize 90% of my free time will be spent on my aquariums.

We are all glad for updates for sure. The challenge for many viewers (and me) is the scale. The pictures look like "normal" equipment but the true scale is WAY beyond normal. Maybe include a bucket or something that gives an insight into the true scale of what you are building.
Good luck Rob Bob.

Yesterday we started building the quarantine tank.
Here you see one of the technical rooms used for quarantine tanks.
We first build this polypropylene tank.

The underside of the floorplate will be isolated.

The situation after 1 day work.
This is a 10ft tank with max waterheight of 4ft.
