I’m not 100% sure, but I’m seriously considering going all in on a nearly 800 gallon tank in my living room that would be plumbed into my house. This is going to be a big project that will involve a number of contractors, but the plan is to do it right.

I was wondering if any of you who have done something on this scale can share your tips and lessons learned.

Also, the aquarium guy I’ve been discussing this with is talking about using a combo of a big wet dry sump and a Fluval canister. That’s pretty much the setup I used to use on a smaller 200 gallon tank. Is it my best option for something of this size?
