Building 2000 Gallon SaltWater Pool

[Will Hayward]

I actually bought a poly cattle tank that is 9 feet round and 2 and a half feet tall. What do you guys think. Im going to use my 300 gallon Rubbermaid for filtration full of live rock and skimmers. What do you guys think? I have a bat ray right now in the 300 and 3 sharks. I was thinking about the the rectangle idea building a wood one but the sharks and rays would run into the corners.

As I understand it, that is 1190 US gallons filled to the Brim, plus your 300 Gallon sump. It may not have the height of what you wanted, but I think a full circle will work a lot better for the sharks.

Lets have some photos!

This is where i need someones help. I will post pics soon. I was wanting the poly tank to be a little higher but i could not find anything. So i really wanted to put something around the poly tank half in the tank and half out of the tank and fill the tank up a little higher. Is there anyway this is possible please let me know what you think. Thanks!!!

I picked up the biggest one they had. Should be awesome in my garage with sharks and stingrays. My batray will be happy going from the 300 gallon lagoon to this. Im going to use the 300 gallon as the sump. What do you think.

Be sure to clean it at least 2-3 times. The best solution is 1 part of hydrochloric acid and three parts of the 5 gallon bucket of water. Rubber gloves and a brush to clean the battery plates of salt.
