Intex Pool practicality?

I did little research on this. Some say yes, some say no. However, I found this video on YT [YT]http://youtu.be/_PimstGgmQw[/YT]

I noticed from his other videos he posts/did post here. So, I figured I'd ask. What's the practicality of this being used for say a year, maybe longer? I have a screened in side porch. That's more than likely where it would go. I live in Florida so the temperature is not a huge problem. It would hold my JD, Oscar, 1 fire mouth, one convict, and 2 parrots. I'd obviously end up getting at least a couple more. Probably, a Peacock Bass, maybe a couple more Oscars. I have a buddy that wants to get rid of 2. It would be approximately 1000 gallons, maybe more depending on feedback.

That's what I figured as well. I'm still concerned about Plecos. I hear people say their Pleco destroyed the liner. I didn't think it would be problematic because the pool liners are (usually) stronger than the average pond liner. I have a Pleco in my small pond out back, for about a year no problems, yet.

I went to a members house who had 2 or 3 of them setup with all kinds of MASSIVE fish and rays. Im talking 30"+ pacu and rays bigger than manhole covers. Id be nervous about anything big and toothy or with a stinger but he didnt have any issues.

Wow. Any pictures? That sounds awesome. Did they have any substrate, or would that be a bad idea?

Nice, man! Looks good, I'm definitely going to do it now.
