How do even get one of thease? I'm surprized their not illigal!

In most respects, they are. About 95% of them brought into the US are brought in as black market animals. Not to mention local (state) regulations on them.

I keep mine in a 145,000 gallon.

I am only half kidding when I ask this... but has anyone ever used a large swimming pool for fish? Without chlorine obviously! lol. Sounds like a good idea if you had a huge custom filter
