Ive got an office type ceiling mounted flourescent unit which takes two 5 foot tubes and has built in reflectors fitted above the tank, i'm just waiting for someone to come and wire everything up for me as i'm not sure enough of my own workmanship to mess about with the electrics that essentially keep my fish alive.

Its getting there
the exciting day will be putting the first fish in the tank and watching them explore their new "ocean"
Lol. That just gave me a picture of a lone neon swimming around that 900g tank.
Looking more awesome each day CFC!
Hi There,
regarding backgrounds, shelves and plataues, etc. I found a guy who makes and sells awesome backgrounds on eBay. He can make them to any design you want. I'm sure if you spoke to him, he'd be happy to give you a major discount for the exposure this projeect could give him. Take a look at his site, his bg's look fantastic.

Those are very nice but i already have a background on the tank, i simply used the polystyrene backgrounds from 11 Exo Terra vivariums and stuck them to the glass with silicon.
I've got the first few fish in the tank now, pictures will follow once the bacterial bloom caused by the mature filter media clears.

hey very nice tank, what are your first fish
what fish are you planning on getting as a lot of fish would be lost in that tank

First to go in were the two Liearius pictus, silver arowana and dorado as they were the fish in greatest need of more space, i'll be adding the rest of my big south americans a few at a time over the next 2 weeks with the sting rays going in last.
I dont really have any plans to add anything new to this tank, its purpose was to give the fish i have a better quality of life and free up the 200g and a few smaller tanks for some new fish. With the 4 fish i've already added there is around 90 inches of fish so by the time i've put the rest of the fish in it will be pretty well stocked anyway.

The bacterial bloom has cleared over night leaving the tank crystal clear and the fish looking very happy with their new home so here are some pictures i took this morning before i add the sand and some more decore, just in case the water clouds up again.
Not the best quality in the world but i'm having real problems with the light levels in the room, i'm sure Andywg and Nina will get some better ones soon when they come over with their fancy SLR camera next.
