i don't think so as 96 inch is about 8 feet and 8 feet mean 2.40 m so i can't afford that length as the tank / pond will be in my house terrace and the terrace shape is somehow irregular and in the place where i wanna put the tank/pond the maximum length i can get is about 2.20 m , so i think 87 inch so 7.5 feet ...i thought about placing the tank/pond somewhere else but the terrace will be heated and will be a bit warm in winter inside .......so the place is the same but i need answers : what you suggest me a plywood tank or a pond ? which will be cooler .. beautifuler ...easier to do ( i think pond is ) and any other stuff on pond/plywood and you can say the pros and cons for both and i will choose one...please i need help is not so easy to choose i need your opinions please...i need help
