1000 gallon monster cement tank
- Thread starter Stuka
- Start date
I also started with tanks at 14. But believe me, do NOT go overboard with this. You might have time now but school and life can definitely hammer into your time. Also who is funding this? Who will sponsor the expensive kit and food for fish in a tank that size? Even more so if you want to go planted... Have you discussed this with your parents?
And once you move out what happens to the tank?
Also on planting, with fish and a tank that size lighting will be expensive, planted substrate will be extortionately expensive and good luck keeping rooted plants in. Rhizome plants like anubias or microsorum attached to decor would be an easier option IMO.

Also maybe you think it will hammer my time but only thing that i do if not studying is playing games and watch tv
And about funding half things that i need i already have and best part is that i dont need to pay for water because my house is on side of river which is clean
1. You don't need separate comments for a list, just one reply will work.
2. You sounded kinda rude in that first reply with "Did I said"
3. The dude above asked about when you move out, and I agree. That will be a waste.
4. Fish, food, cement, acrylic/glass, steel, meds, conditioners, test kits, filters, sumps, piping. This is all gonna get expensive and get there fast. A 14 year old affording this...I'm 16 with a job and can't afford a 10K car. You must be loaded.

Try to rescue some fish from Craigslist.
Avoid the large pangasius cats.
Avoid northern pike unless you can keep the tank 55 degrees year round
