If You Could Choose Only One Tank, What Would It Be?

[Gazoo]

If you could keep only one tank for fish, what would it be? Keep in mind, the tank would be kept where you live and only you would be responsible for maintaining it.

Don't be persuaded by big sizes if you dig something like a betta and would only want to keep it solo in a small tank. Also, the higher cost of acrylic would not matter.

Please move this to "Tropical Discussion". I messed up.

Thanks

210 gallons broken up into 2 pools, smaller pool at the top spilling into a larger pool. I'd have it planted in an austrailian biotope. For fish I would keep a group of Melanotaenia Lacustris (Lake Kubutu rainbowfish.)

bigger get rid of my garden and turn it into a insulated fish tanks with massive rays and sharks basically a giant marine tank with giant fish in it if price was no matter.

75 gallon wide made of acrylic.

I don't have a python so lifting buckets for a 210 gallon would sap all the fun out of fish keeping. Its a nice size to stock with plenty of options. Acrylic because its so much lighter than glass and apparently clearer (plus comes with a longer guarantee I think).

There are already threads quite similar to this one. Even if you think about it, a thread like this wouldn't be that original.

I still find it fun!



I'd have a 400-500 acrylic saltwater tank in my basement. That would mean wide. I'd have a shark and possibly a stingray. Maybe something else, if it was determined that the new inhabitant wouldn't get eaten.

I could watch a tank like that for hours. I sat at Henry Doorly Zoo in the walk through tunnel (giant shark, ray, fish etc tank) for about an hour (at least). I only left it b/c my family was bored
