hello everyone. i have been thinking about upgrading to a larger tank since my fish will soon outgrow my 2 tanks. the problem is that both grow large, and neither tank will coexist together. So i had this idea to build a pond that is 6x5x2 and divide it into 2 sections so that it would be 3x5x2. This would be enough room for all the fish to grow into. I would like to build it so that it is viewable from all sides. I do not have any experience with building tanks, so any help at all is appreciated. Thank you!!
 
sorrry about that

in one tank, i have a niger trigger, huma trigger, dog face puffer, and a zebra moray eel

in the other i have a yellow stingray, a flame fin tang, and a volitan lionfish
 
Wood, concrete, liner or fiberglass?

Any experience with the above?

Do you have a budget or does your disposable income just get in the way when your trying to spend money?

Have you read all the other threads on hear about doing the same thing? They will help you with some of your decisions.

i am planning on using wood, no i do not have any experience. Budget, hmmm that all depends on the day. yes, i have read all the threads. Would just like a little bit more clarification
 
I do not think wood would be the best material if you want to view on two sides, if you want to view on two sides, then I suggest a cinderblock pond for a pond this size. Ask specific questions, we'd all be able to help.

It's only two feet tall! That's 2.5 blocks high.

Why concrete?
