Biggest tank on Reef Central? MÃ¥st Beautiful?

[anthworks]

Shark tank guy has a pretty large tank. Not sure on the size though

that is big! but it seems to small for that black tip shark.

This looks a little better suited for sharks.

How big is that tank?

 

[tom obrecht]

I have to believe there are other larger German tanks out there...somewhere????????

 

[sixxer]

That is a 4000 gallon display tank!!!!!!

I'm a fan of large tanks but that is truly HUGE! If that was a full blown reef how would you clean the glass, how would you glue the frags?

I would be glad to be the one to try and figure it out thats for sure!!

 

[tom obrecht]

I think if you own a 4000tank you could either afford someone to clean it for you or learn how to scuba dive and not even have to leave your living room to swim with sharks. Can you imagine the 911 call your spouse would have to make? Yeah, my spouse just got attacked by a shark in our living room?!?!?!?!

:lol: :lol:

That would be an interesting 911 call to get!!!!! LOL

 

[JesterGrin]

I bet they would think it would be a prank from Saturday Night Live LAND SHARK lol.

how would you do water movement for a tank that size without spinning your electric meter so fast it goes back in time? If you do 30-50x turn over on that 4kgal tank, You'd need something that even Tunze hasn't invented yet.

 

[tom obrecht]

I'm not for sure but I wouldn't be suprised if they would just drop in an outboard 220 horse Mercury and run it all out!!

ROTFLMAO!

I think it would be safe to say that would cause a microbubble problem! Can you put a 100 micron filter sock on a Mercury outboard?

 

[tom obrecht]

I don't know about the micro sock, but maybe you could trim the motor put put a nice ripple effect on the surface of the water! Also with the cost of gas right now it may not be the most economical.

thats easy, like that

[tom obrecht]

Now who gave you a picture of my filter room???:lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[tom obrecht]

How about any links to some German tanks. I have to believe there are some monsters out there? Ohh, by the way...what about Wayne Shangs 700 reef? Pretty impressive. I have his latest book and he has some nice things in that tank!
