tank size for pbass

[cichlid savage]

I want to start planning a new tank for my pbass. As i look around a lot of the larger tanks have wide footprints but are not very tall. What is a good height for a pbass tank? I'm thinking around 300 gallons or better.

Personally, I like tanks that are a little bit taller, say 30"-36". But if you're looking to stay in the 300gal range then get one that's 24" tall and go for the extra width.

Ya u need width they dont turn like an arowana or any thing like that

if you looking to house them for life .. and you want tems. the anything from 8 ft. long by 4- 5 feet wide would be best.. monos and orinos you can go smaller

240 that is 30"w is good but you might want to change it to 30" tall looks alot better.unless you put it on a 36"+ stand.

I've noticed that if you want to buy a tank above 24" high the glass needs to be a lot thicker to cope with the extra pressure which in turn makes the price considerably higher.
