New 850 gallon aquarium

I don't get it, is there any glass on that tank yet?

Bifferwine · Jan 25, 2011

What are the dimensions? My 240 was 7' x 3' x 3', which looks to be similar to what you have.

I'll settle this...I'll crawl into there...and if it's exactly twice as long as me, then it's definitely a 10' long tank :D :bounce:

No... Look at the height of the door behind it in relation to the tank. I don't think that's anywhere near 850. Maybe 1/3 or 1/4 of that size.

i think what i put in was right..

850 liters would equal 225 gallons, which is what that tank looks like.

Converted to feet, it's around 8.5' x 4' x 3.5'. Approximately.
That would be around 850g.

Plywood and fibreglass aquarium build

Im calling BS

wontonflip · Jan 25, 2011

Bifferwine · Jan 25, 2011

Oh wow. That is your tank...that same picture...on that website. How curious!! :evil:

Apparently he already has fish in it too!

bjohanson1234 · Jan 25, 2011

I dont think african cichlids are reef safe

wontonflip · Jan 25, 2011

I think he changed his mind midway and converted it to a cichlid tank shortly after receiving the tank earlier today. :)
