what would you do?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Go for it, pal, and best luck to you. I hope I do not have to make this kind of choice, though. Oh, make sure you WILL get your 1000 or 1500 gallon tank soon. ;)

Best regards.

Daniel.
 
The more I think about it, the more I realize that my current situation denies me a chance to grow up an arowana or a peacock bass. We, as a community, always always always preach big spaces, and rightly so. Now I can give myself the opportunity to have a tank like dieselmack or a 1000 or 1500 gal. tank like some of our other members. I cant remember his name, but there is a gentleman on this site from Texas who has the best fish room I've ever seen. So hopefully, there will be no more drooling over other people's stuff. Now the fun begins. Any suggestions on companies that will deliver custom built tanks? I found a couple but the prices varied greatly, so I will be searching some more. any help would be greatly appreciated.

once again, this site has proven to be more than helpful. you guys are pissa.
 
Seems like by the time a tank gets to be really fun size you end up having to get rid of something to make it fit-stored my set ups once or twice over the decades,missed them but really brought back the excitment when I was able to set them back up again!
 
Dude.. If you're buying property, why not build yourself a massive tank on the property?

Sell your current setup for the start-up supplies to build a cement or wood 'Monster' tank that is like 2000g+ (See recent MFK articles)..

First you build the monster tank, with a nice viewing window and sitting area.. Then just put up a small pole building or greenhouse over the top of it.. :)

Then you can have the best of both worlds!
 
that's the idea... well this first property would be a starter home, something I wouldnt want to set up a massive fish tank in. the long term plan is that the next property would be something to settle down in. that will be where I keep the monsters. it's starting to look good now.
 
the sooner you can get into home ownership the sooner you will be able to set up your monster fish room. take a break and put your stuff in storage and work to get in a possition where you can get back into it later. good luck.
 
I just bought a house, and it's also a fixer-upper and not planning on having it be a permenant home. However, I find it really easy to roll 360g rubbermaid stock tanks up and down the stairs :) :) :thumbsup:
 
go for the property. with the build up of equity in your home you will be able to buy your dream tank/fish.

good luck!
