For A Big Tank

Is this what you have to do to aquasape it? planting frags? adding anemones? what about clams, i know you just wouldnt drop them in and watch them fall to the bottom. Do any of you have big tanks, if so how do you do it?

I wanted a big tank but didnt know i needed a wetsuit also..

Re: For A Big Tank

That is a HUGE tank not a large one. 550gal I wish. Most tanks even large ones are only 30"s max. A step stool and stretching should make it easier to reach the bottom, Just maybe with wet armpits! Seriously that is a MONSTER of a tank!

Re: For A Big Tank

My 240 is almost 3 feet deep, and I have armpit length gloves that come in handy a lot. I need to stand on a chair just to reach halfway down into it though.

Getting into your tank would be a bad idea, no matter how big it is, I think. Think of all the shampoo, soaps, oils, dirt, etc we have on our skin and hair. I wouldn't want all that coming off in my tank.

That tank is huge. It makes the fish look so small.
