Just some quick math, 16’ x 2.5’ x 2.5’ (30 inches equals 2.5 feet) equals just under 750 gallons. Water weighs 10 pounds per gallon so that would equal 7,500 pounds. Round it up to 8,000 pounds for ease. Divide by 2,000 since 2,000 pounds equals 1 ton and you get 4 tons.
You were about a ton off but a close guess so good job.
I must ask this though, if you’re going to do a tank 16 feet long then why would it only be 2.5 feet wide? In my mind it would look odd.
Also welcome to monsterfishkeepers, we have free coffee and doughnuts by the door :).

Hello can i see your hoplos?
 
Eh, I just found out who has been attacking a few of my fish today and removed the offendor. The hoplo is one of the injured fish and I’d rather show him to you when he’s looking his hest so ask again in 2 weeks ok?

i insist on seeing em, but if its a trouble dont worry... how big is he? color? you got any older pics?
 
It’s not a trouble but I don’t want to show him because it looks like he dove into a pool full of barbed wire and the scars healed after a year so they’re pale white lines. I don’t know for sure but I think he’s around 4 inches. He is black. I don’t normally take pictures of my fish unless something is wrong and I have to get an opinion on what to do although I should take more pictures. I will when I start doing journals and finally get a camera instead of my phone.
