Three timers to give you a Noon effect as well. I've been thinking about this for the breeding tanks for some time now. The U will give you a far better visual impact but you might not want the entire thing to be one tank. These WILL be monster fish after all and as we all know they tend NOT to get along the way we might like. so...a simulated u shape... One 10 footer and two 6 footers?
Maybe, have to do some measuring, and thinking.
Good idea though.
I'm leaning toward the "L" at this point.
Bigger footprint = biggger monsters.
I'd like to try an Aro.,P-Bass,Clown Knife, etc. (Big Fish) at some point, and I think the "L" being 4 feet front to back would be more condusive to larger, longer fish.
I've seen these fish in 125's-150's, and feel they don't have enough room.
My current 125 looks too small for the fish of this type I've seen, even as a single fish in the tank.
OR, a "small" school of 1,000 neons could be cool too (tons of plants and driftwood).
Again, I'm in the thinking planning stages (and keep the ideas flowing), so I'm thinking on all levels here.
Lighting, stocking, filtration, cost to build and maintain, what I could potentially stock it with, etc.
To me, it's a big project that will take some time to complete if started, and I want to have the plans and design preset in my mind and on paper before beginning.
Once (if) I get started, THEN I'll be in a hurry to see the fruits of the effort, and a well thought out plan of action will help keep down any mid-build changes/mods.
The 2 sixes and 1 ten seem, at first thought, to be more complicated to filter (excluding one giant central filter), than one inclusive tank with a underlying sump, w/d.
Maybe the same thing, still thinking.
screwy:

Did I type that out loud ???
