no the 1200 gallon is still at the mold stage of things, 7'lx5'dx5't single window from the front left side, continuing across the front bending at a 3' radius, and continuing to the rear right side of the tank, so the front and right side of the tank will be open to view with a single curved acrylic window... that tank will be installed first, then I will look at pursuing the larger display tank, I was planning on putting the larger display tank in a garage which is being purpose built in our backyard that we want to use as a showroom where we can let people see stunning examples of what we can do. you need to be able to make customers jaws drop if you want them to purchase a $50,000.00+ aquarium, thats whay we are building big tanks.... we are building the 1200 gallon in our house because I want something nice to look at while relaxing at home, and something that customers can view in a home enviroment(lets them realize they can have it in their place too)
I protect the rest of the house from moisture by sealing the area off and running seperate ventalation to and from the tank, I dont need to be told that its expensive, Im footing the bill.........lol, Im broke as a joke right now...lol
hopefully we will start manufacturing our very own acrylic cylinders here in kelowna, that would make me smile, we are looking to make 4'diameterx4'tall acrylic tubes in regular cell cast, and scratch free cell cast acrylic to start, gota see how things go
