The dimensions would be 10'x12'x6'. I think seeing a shoal of 100 red, blue, yellow, green, brown, peach, and white discus would look amazing, but is that a lot for this size tank?
 
wtf sounds awsome
 
lol make it 200

Why waste such a nice footprint on so so fish ,a pima will do well in there ,and with careful feeding that could be his 4 ever home .there are not many tanks that size out there ,make good use of it :headbang2:headbang2
 
Ha a so so fish you say? Not sure about you, but 100 or 200 12" diameter fish, making a huge colorful wall, with some Stingrays at the bottom sounds awesome to me. With a huge piece of driftwood in the middle, with various plants attached. Dang, it'd be like seeing them in nature. I think that'd be the best personally :)
 
Here's a video of the largest tank with discus that I've ever seen...
