What would you do with 1000g?

[freshmike]

I would fill it full of soil and keep moles in it.

Cracks me up.....

If money WERE a slight issue....then it would have to be a tanganyikan tank...fronts and such....many many many.....

However, if money were NO issue....then it would be a reef tank. *drool*

 

[HeatherSweetness]

I would keep a large squid,an octopus or a few stingrays. How cool would that be?

 

[Air Jordan]

easy.

a shark.

 

[annieka]

I would make a Azian type tank.
Put in lots (azian) plants and floating plants.
And fill it with different species goerami's, rasbora's, loaches, betta, shrimps and snails. But I wouldn't put in more fish than 0,3 cm/Liter, because this will resemble the natural situation more.

 

[Doggfather]

a whole lot of gourami's and loaches

 

[Stryker]

Sizewise that has to be about 8'x5'x4' or something like that. I think there was a link on this forum to a 1000g site where a chap built one.

 

[Eelzor]

I would turn it into a saltwater tank and house several rays, sharks, eels, octopus, and basically lotz of oddballz of the sea.

8 foot? Its 1000gallon!! (No width or length was given so I take it that it can be simply 1000gallon. (btw, by sharks, I hope you didn't think a great white or something man, I meant something reasonable. Hope its clear

 

[Stryker]

The whole 8 foot think was my thinking, I just assumed 1000 UK gallons and worked that out in cubin inches then just calcuguest some dimensions for that

Interesting isnt it, 1000 gals sounds like acres, ok I mean its BIG but not that big.... ermm....

I'll get me coat

 

[gixer]

lol i know i worked it out before too (well i tried) its a lot bigger that 8 foot but its still not as big as you first imaginge.

 

[gixer]

closest i could get it to was this..

Tropical Rectangular aquarium Length: 180 Inches Width: 40 Inches Depth: 42 Inches
Distance of light source from gravel: 40 Inches
Surface area: 7200 Inches2 Volume: 1090.04 UK gallons Weight of water: 10892.81 lbs
Max. units of fish: 600 Inches Heating required: 3270.13 watts

thats 15 foot x 3 foot x 3.5 foot.

wow i could fit that in my living room pretty easy.

 

[drobbins27]

Shark tank(real saltwater sharks), i would like to take a dip while cleaning it also. I'm going to have to get some species that won't eat me while cleaning the tank...

with friken lasers on their heads

 

[OscarCichlid]

i would make it FW heavily planted with real plants. It would be a peaceful community with All kinds of teras, Dwarf Gouramis, a betta, Swordtails, Mollies, Platys, guppies all kinds of corys and plecos, and any other livebearer i could find..

 

[cutechic]

I think I'd try keeping cichlids. Actually, if money was no object, maybe I'd go into saltwater
