If you want an arowana you need as much of the top footprint as possible

This a good foot print for an arowana. How you planing on he ting the tank I have some theories on how to build a concrete tank

Let me know...im all open to ideas before i progress to much.
But i plan on keeping the room in a high temp, but additional heaters in the sump. Not really sure yet. That together with moisture/humidity is one of my concerns.

I have some thoughts about the glass. If i make everything level, it should not be any need for a frame to mount the glass in? I have seen some of the bigger concrete tanks that uses av heavy frame in wood or steel, but i cant see the need for that in my tank.
Plan is to just mount it directly onto the concrete walls (well...of course after the fibreglass and expoy is applied.)

Playing around...while waiting for snow to melt so i can get some concrete to my build...
