Okay, i know a lot of you have much larger tanks in size, but this is the first tank i have had above 100 gallons!
It's not stocked yet. it's 150 gallons, with a filter meant for 300. Hope you all like it!

Congratulations on the new tank. FYI, I have been keeping fish for fifty years and never owned more than a 125. Some times more is better than bigger! Besides, if you can comfortably house the fish you want to keep that is all that matters. Good luck with it.

Nice! What do you plan on putting in it?

I've been in the hobby for a long time too. My biggest tank is a 120 gal. Not everyone aspires to keep a Red Tail Catfish.
I like your tank. It has a lot of potential.

Pleco
bluegill (water will be cool)
2 turtles - yep, sounds crazy but these ones are either really lazy or just don't care, because iv'e kept all sorts of fish with them, including cichlids and goldfish, and neither of which have ever gotten a bite in them.

I've already got the turtles and pleco in a 50 gallon, so technically, this is an upgrade for them.
here are some older pictures of them

It asked me if I was sure I wanted to like your post .
That's fantastic. What's your next upgrade? We always have another upgrade in mind even after upgrading

Congrats. I just set up my first 150 as well. Nice turtled.
