I'm still waiting for the day to see the house be the tank, and the "tank" is just a little viewing area for the people to sit in. Like a basement converted to a giant tank with an acrylic sitting area in the middle that gives a 360 degree viewing.

A tank built around a house sounds interesting, but I'd settle for a house built around the tank.
Pat McGee built his house around his dream tank.
This was a very interesting thread where MFK members went several times to give Pat a hand with his tank. Pat was suffering from major health problems.

I was wondering what happened to that one.. I was following that thread and it just tapered off and died at one point and then I lost track of it. It looks like its still never finished?
I was curious about some of the design of it... specifically shots from under the floor of it showed large 2 ft square unsupported expanses of plywood. I just couldn't see that holding up to 6+ feet of water for the long term.
edit- damn.. I see the guy died.. man, what a bummer to have been so close to finishing his dream tank.

The tank was finished. He had an iron problem from his well water. It took a long time to get the equipment to remove the iron. He had been waiting for the water to look better before he posted pictures. He did post in the thread that he was going to sell his house. The MFK thread was left open ended.
These pics are from his Facebook page

I just went to try to see pictures of this tank. I found post where he says he changes his water once a month 5 thousand gallons but I cannot find any pictures of this tank filled with water.
