4000 and 3000 gallon tanks

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I'm going to throw out a bunch of ideas and questions. Any safety plans for if someone goes under? I assume the depth you intend to keep would make it impossible to get back on a tube in the event of a capsize, and you might step on rays while you try. Likely you'd need multiple ladder access and a depth that would keep average people from being able to step/kick a ray.

Would this be going in your home? I'd imagine home insurance and stuff would make this difficult.

I feel like tubes would be a waste in a way, unless you can find ones that aren't as vision obstructing. I say you double down on the size and set up a glass bottom boat instead.

I'm fairly sure he is just using the term lazy river as a general design layout, I'm pretty sure with his choice of fish that allowing people to raft on it would not only be excessively dangerous but also would leave him open to too many lawsuits. I'd have to assume the "beaches" would be for turtles and not people for instance.

there will be many safety areas where the flow will be slower and there will of course be at least 6 ladders/exit points. This lazy river will be built with super thick steel frames that hold up taller buildings. This is not for public access. Tubing on it will only be open to myself and close friends who will have to sign a waiver if they want to tube haha

You don't spend seven figures on a lazy river and then not raft on it. Inconceivable honestly. I could definitely see Vince throwing back some beers on the indoor beach next to the plat FRT.

Fair enough, as long as the proper thought goes in. I'm just trying to keep the creative juices flowin'.

You have a huge aquarium, and a lot of big fish ( Applause )
But damn it's ugly and confusing to look at, you literally did nothing to make it look decent.
