honestly i think that you could get a used setup (i.e. tank, lights, stand, top) for 1.5g that leaves you .5g for 2 fx5s 300 for 3 small motoros, 300 for large datnoid, 200 for large geos, 100 for large arowana and 100 for shipping. 3g exact

Shippings is not 100 for all fish lol...you will never find 3 motoros for 300 bucks shipped. Even vamp only has them for $100 each with $85 shipping...
 
the OP is in texas, and wants an arowanna setup.

in texas rays are illegal, quit suggesting them.

stay on point
 
you can give me some of that money maybe 1.5 of the 3g's and we'll go mountain biking..hahahahaha..j/k..damn 3g's huh...i agree with the rest about used tank but the man has a poject fit for a restuarant aquarium.i know cause he calls me up about it.making me want one.damnit.keep them updated on the project elgeebee-ek..
 
This is what I will do if I had that money to spend on an arowana setup:
Buy a used tank measuring 8x3x2 around $1000?
Buy 4 Canister Filters around $800?
Buy a sump around $200?
Fish stock around $500?
$200 for etc
Save $300! :D
 
Funny how you guys think there are all these used 8x3x2' tanks available

Keep the ideas coming , can't afford to do more maybe scrounge up an extra $500 but thats pushing it. am looking at glasscages 8 x 3 x 2 probably thats at least $1300 leaves me $1700 for the rest , two FX5's are a good idea maybe 2 eheim 2180's? still looking at some ideas,originally plan was at 2 G's but it's not feasible. maybe 3500? lol anyway like I said keep the ideas coming. Definitely DIY stand for me.

Glasscages 8x3x2' is $1575 plus 90 bucks for glass tops and another $180 to pick up from them in either Houston or Dallas or $300 to pick up in Amarillo. Even more if ya have it delivered to your door. So at least $1850 bucks probably closer to $2200 to have it delivered to you.

Last year I had a base quote of $2400 for the same size acrylic tank from tenecor.

Acrylic is about half the weight of glass and tenecors lifetime guarantee is a bit longer then glasscages 90 day guarantee. Also tenecor has a one year no interest no payment option too. IMO it is well worth the extra money.

Heck I had my 450g since June and still have yet to pay a cent on it.:D

you could get some stuff locally, and this is rough, plus he said he could go a little lower,
