Or you could just make it a native tank and get some LMB and channel cats... well thats' what i would do anyways haha
here you go..... heat exchanger is the way to go. I am planning to do one this summer myself for my tanks, hope this helps GL !!

i didnt get what it was talking bout. i was thinking of throwing a pond heater on there but dont see one for less the 1000 gallons.
i dont want smaller tanks. i already have larger tanks but this is my dream tank. i moving in just over a year and will be sure can fit in that house but want to set it up now.
Titanium heaters. I have 4 5 watt heaters on my 700 gallon in the garage and it has maintained a constant 81 F even when it was 20 in the garage. I bought mine off of amazon.com. They come in a set, of two heaters and a controller, for $100 each, plus free shipping.

I'm not sure what you lows are in the winter, but you will probably need some serious heat on that thing to keep it warm. Probably about 1,500W.
I would suggest you insulate the tank very heavily and get a big heater or insulate the garage and heat the entire garage.

i will try the titanium heats i think. and maybe try to insultate the garage for now. thanks for the help
