Whats Considered a MONSTER TANK???

[Fish Eat Fish]

I used to think 200 gallons or more...but now I think any size is. Its all about what you keep in it. a one million gallon tank full of goldfish isnt monster to me...but a tiny tank with something that would devour those goldfish is! anyone who has kept a Mantis Shrimp knows what I mean...I have more monster in 14 gallons than I ever thought possible

I agree with fish eat fish, it is all about what you keep in it that makes it monster. Keeping 500 tetras in a 500 gallon tank isn't monster, 2 stingrays in a 500 gallon tank is

It needs to hold a monster fish, comfortably..

Now define Monster Fish...

So big that you have to build it yourself, because a premade one wouldn't fit through the door. Anything else is just a big freakin' tank. Not a monster though.

whatever you decide is a monster,fish tanks are very expensive,buy to what you can afford,then upgrade,i have a 100gal,90gal,and a 55gal i think their all monsters,plus i have a 23 inch giant gourami in the 100.and a 10 inch red devil in the 90,i don't feel the need to go any bigger.but it's what ever floats your boat...just my opinion..every body has one.

I agree.

Exactly. I remember when I first got my 55 gallon after having a 29. That 55 was HUGE. When I first got my 300 it was almost overwhelming.

Now the 300 seems normal.


So I guess my definition of a monster tank is double whatever you currently own.
