My 1000 Gallon Glass Aquarium (1000+ Gallons for Dummies)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The tank is in my 1100 ft[SUP]2[/SUP] attached garage. The shop is out back. :) The garage is actually quite messy right now. But I have plans...
 
Very cool! Can't wait to see it all setup! That's a great tank for rays!

I haven't updated this thread in a while as I wanted to let the silicone cure properly. I received various opinions from two to four weeks before test filling, so I decided to wait for the latter. I'm going to test fill it this weekend, and then have the fellow plumbing the tank come up with the two Ultima 2000s and all the fittings to complete that task. I'm also working with Stuart Dunn at Universal Rocks to complete a custom Amazon biotope for the tank. I told him I wanted it to look like a public aquarium and I'm pretty sure he's got it covered based on some preliminary designs I've received. Hopefully the fish will be in by the end of the month.
 
Cant wait to see the aquascape that they come up with. They do some amazing stuff
 
First mock up to get the ball rolling. This pic is from before Stuart and I talked on the phone. We needed somewhere to start since we're 2600+ miles apart. ;) The final product will look considerably different, and obviously have more "depth" being as the tank is five feet deep.
