If you had an unlimited amount of money...

[fishoholic]

Just curious, say money was no object, how big of a tank would you get and what equipment, fish etc. would you have?

I think I would have three 8 feet long by 4 feet wide by 2 1/2 feet tall tanks. One for tangs and rabbitfish, lps and softies. One for angels and wrasses. One for puffers and triggers. MH lights all around, tunze power heads/multi controllers, auto top off system and Bubble king skimmers. I would probably also have a 60g cube for smaller fish like blennies/gobies dwarf angels, and a tank for a golden dwarf moray eel.

Such a waste, that tank was a FW

I'd have a 25 000 gallon Shark Reef. it would be build to have a drop off.

Basically, rock on one side, stacked up nearly to the top, full of corals. A semi-steep pitch with overhangs to a large area with sand, some rocks and gorgs, suncorals with a black tip reef shark.

Basically recreate an actual reef.

Well, the first thing I would do is move to the coast, maybe North Vancouver. then, I'd get a flow through system that pumps in natural seawater into a 5 million gallon system (well he said unlimited!). My main stock: a bunch of Manta rays. and then a wack load of other fish to keep it interesting.

edit: and yes, i will be charging for dive trips

do-able dream: i've always wanted to convert a pool into a reef. that would be so cool, you could dive in there.

sorta do-able dream: 30 foot wide, 8 foot tall cylinder.

not possible unless i was bill gates or oprah dream: Buy the Georgia aquarium

[moldrik]

I would just go diving every day.

I'm stealing your dream, har har har!

I'd buy an island in the middle of the Pacific and go diving - way less work, and better everything!

Hey great idea, just buy the Vancouver Aquarium. Much less work than for a little more
money build your dream house around it. Charge addmission or maybe not. Now that would be cool. Actually forget Vancouver a thought just came to me. The Honolulu Aquarium would be even better.
