This is my dream... 1000, 2000? 5000gallons?? I have all the babies between 2 150s and a 125. Money is -no- object.

Must be nice. These days money seems to be an object that I can't seem to get enough of.

they are my favorite fish and I have a decent job. I have no kids so they are my kids lol

No kids, now I'm jealous, lol. That's why I have no money.

How big do Clarias cats get, 15''? I think going with 9 cats and 6 Oscars, you'd want as a min 8' by 3' foot print. Let's say 400-500 gallons as a min, but that might be pushing it. Maybe a better size would be 10' by 4' footprint, say around 750 gallons. That might be the min to look at but I think in your situation, bigger might even be better.

Shoot for the 2000 gallon you'd be better off.

sky's the limit? go for 5k. if it looks empty just add more fish.
