Welcome to the forum - and oh my goodness - what a lot of tanks!!

I wonder, is this going to be a permanent part of the building? Reason I ask is it is fantasic to see all those tanks, but it could be - as we say in the U.K. "Tarted up" a bit.

Have the tanks been donated over time, or bought second hand? Coz they are such expensive things to buy. Its just a shame that they are all different.

I wonder it the randomness of the looks of the tanks might prevent people coming to eat there. You could draw in huge crowds if you made it all a bit more business like. Build a strong (and I mean strong) platform that stretches the length of where the tanks currently are, and place the tanks all on the platform. Then box in the bottom with cupboards for access and storage. It would hide all of the things like filters and pipes that can look a bit out of place in a restaurent.

It would look SSOOOO amazing if the tank cabinets were not there. They are a bit of a distraction.

sorry if it sounds like I dont like what you have. I DO!! Just could be even better.

Hi chefjamesscott

Welcome to the forum!

Your restaurant looks like a wonderful place to eat. I love fish and soup. The mix of different size tanks, furniture and art looks great. Thanks for sharing it with us.

I've cut some inappropriate posts out of your thread and hope this makes your introduction to the forum go more smoothly. We are usually friendly folks around here.

welcome! this is what i want to do if i open a restaurant (which i am considering) looks great!

 

[BlueGuppy]

Wow lots of tanks and fish!! Looks like a mini aquarium where you can eat. It would be awesome if the resteraunt would have a fish theme. The place looks great though and lots of things to watch. Great job.

Also wonder who does all the tank cleaning...lol.

 

[DiscusKeeper403]

If I were you I would take out all the tanks and get a HUGE custom made tank that runs the length of a wall or two, it would look amazing!

 

[prankster705]

Well, since "inappropriate" comments got cut... I don't see you offering a solution for when those pangasius outgrow that 140 gallon tank... Mind offering an explanation of your future plans for them?
