I am suprised that there is no monies available through the college for something like this. I know that there is a marine biology class that is a 5.5 credit course offered there, and I am sure that if you were to prepare a document and present it to the dean stating why this would possibly help any students in this course he would be more than willing to entertain your ideas and give you another avenue to possibly fund this tank.
You would have to explain that during all this process all the students would be able to see any chemical changes in the tank and how different fish and invertebrates react to these changes( I am not saying that you would subject any animals to bad conditions) first hand, and be able to document them.
Just an idea...
