Sort of a bump on the how many tanks do you have thread. This time, list all your animals. I want to see someone who's got a ton of animals. Right now I've got 2 leopard geckos, a rabbit, a dog, a hedgehog, and 3 cats. Currently tankless, getting a tank this summer hopefully. Also plan on getting a sugar glider, savannah monitor, and tegu in the next future.
How many animals do you have?

Wow. That's a lot of stuff, lol.

-Dual 1,300 gallon monster tanks
-550 gallon ancient fish tank (pair of cuban gars and a ton of polypterus mostly, no aros)
-180 reef, with 10 gallon reef tied into it
-40 breeders - octopus tank and brackish tank
-65 planted
-600 FOWLR
-600 FRT
-300 planted cichlid (one nice show pleco, discus, pikes, angels, geophagus)
-Dual 12' intex pools (one tropical shark, one coolwater)
-150 gallon dragon moray
-9x9 pond (natives aka sturgeon, longnose gar, smallmouth bass, bullhead, spotted turtles, bullfrogs, etc)
-Reptile room with a few larger enclosures (larger lizards (like monitors, igs, tegus), show turtle tank, and a big anaconda cage), a bunch of 20 longs (breeding groups of small herps), a bunch of 2x2x3 screen cages (aboreals), a bunch of 18x18x24 exo terras (smaller arboreals), 36x18x18 exo terras (smaller snakes and medium lizards), and a few medium/large wooden cages, somewhere near the 6x4x4 range
-A few birds
Eventually, I would like to have a warehouse/building with a large shark pool. Something in the 160,000 gallon range. This seems like a ton, however I worked out the prices. I may be a bit off, but I have a good feeling I'm pretty close. Here's what I came up with:
-Around $50,000 for a large building to house it
-Around $10,000 for ventilation, lighting, insulation, etc in the building
-Around $25,000 for the actual pool itself (an above-ground, Arthur's Pools does custom designs and something about this size costed 17 grand but this one is deeper)
-Around $25,000 for filtration from AES
-Around $5,000 for an ozone and/or UV sterilization tank (put water change water in here, and essentially make it new sterilized water so you don't have to remake water after a water change)
-Around $10,000 for a solar panel pool heating system
-Around $10,000 for sand (pool filter sand) and rock (pool waterfall/grotto rock)
-Around $10,000 for smaller schooling fishes to fill in empty space (optional, I would do this though)
-Around $30,000 for sharks/rays to stock it (depends on what you fill it with though)
-Around $25,000 for everything else (test kits, thermometers, filling the pool, DIY salt, RODI unit, place to store food, etc)
That adds up to $200,000. A lot, but about the price of a swimming pool that is much smaller (concrete pool). I'm a long, long, LONG ways away from something like that though
