Days would go by before you even see it lol.Imagine a 10,000 gallon with 1 male betta.
What would you put in a 10,000 gallon fish tank?

I think this is tank big enough to keep 2 male bettas together because they'd never find each other!
Imagine it so heavily planted that it's not even funny and then stock it with thousands and thousands of nano fish.

I was a very keen angler up until a few years ago. I always dreamed of having fish that I actually caught and putting them in a large aquarium someday. So mine would be a cold water set up and i'd have a huge shoal of European perch with an even bigger shoals of minnows and gudgeon as food. A couple of small shoals of roach and rudd too along with some tench and maybe the odd common carp. And for a hint of menace i'd put a single pike in there (esoxlucius) just to keep everyone on their toes! I'd love to have this dream setup on the side of the house with a huge acrylic viewing panel so I could sit in my warm house and just drool over my fish.
If I had that tank I would make a Asian themed tank, have a Fly River turtle, big iridescent catfish, massive group of clown loaches, Asian arowanas, snakeheads, tons of datnoids, Black sharks, high fin banded sharks, red tail giant gourami, group of Bala sharks and some fire eels
Dream tank! Have to put an additional room to house. Probably a greenhouse. School of Koi for sure. and plecos. Water Lillies and Lotuses. Rays if compatible. Are they? Not sure what else.
I was thinking about it last night and I came up with something great.
Let's say the tank is 20 feet long, 12 feet long, and 5 feet high and let's also say that equals 10k gallons, it doesn't but let's just say it does for now.
So we put a big sheet of acrylic that measures 10 feet long and 12 feet wide on it then we cover it with dirt, plants, moss, and what not. Think of a jungle floor. Also some small jungle like trees.
Next we build a bird cage surrounding the perimeter of the top of the tank, all 20x12 of it. In the tank we'll have a variety of small fish, some minnows, tetras, and some larger fish that will eat some of them. Some snails, crayfish, and lots of plants and driftwood for hiding places. Make it have a nice sand bottom.
Now we get a bunch of small frogs, think dart frogs and such, and let them live on the 10x12 area above the tank. We'll put in some bugs and different things that'll breed and provide a food source.
Now just maybe we'll have a bird or two that'll also live in the cage. It can collect nuts and seeds from the small trees and eat some frogs, bugs, and fish. It'll be a whole ecosystem!

I would go with a central American set up a pair of wild Dovii All AMP species with lots of driftwood
+1. You can have my Achara cats. They are just about to be too big for my tank. Lol. Misread some threads a while back and bought them at an auction.
And have arowana in the tank to eat the birds that fly near the water... just sayin.
