Your Dream Aquarium?

[Kase]

What is your "Dream Aquarium"?... Mine would be a 200 gal long with silica sand substrate, a wall of lava rock, some daffodil brichardi, a colony of yellow head blue flash and some nice ventralis

[marisa]

My dream aquarium is one without algae.

LOL

big enough for a group of five Asian Arowanas-Scleropeges formosus (reds, golds, blues. I'll take 'em all), a few hi fin suckers and a little plastic air pump powered diver for decoration! Hey we can dream!

[Zoe]

Mine is one filled with a snake :)

[XxRachxX]

mine would be a huuuuge sexy marine tank:) with all live coral etc...with sexy piccasso triggerfish......because you need sexy fish to go with a sexy tank^_^ they are by far my fave fishies.......
sexy seems to be my sexy word of the day......

but if i wanted to be totally unrealistic....then i would go for one exactly the same as the one at the sea life centre over here.... it has one of those walk through tunnels, and the fish are so beautiful^_^ they even have turtles! its only been running a few months apparently....so alot of the fish were quite small..... it was so beautiful! im going again soon .... must..... take ....... camera!!
yeah.....

[marisa]

1100gal
1 blue based RTG, 5 Wide bar datnoids, 4 leopoldi rays (1.3), 2 fly river turtle, lots of endilacheri bichirs, other assorted bichirs, 4 feng fei's, and a few guppies :p

I haven't posted yet for that same reason... it keeps changing! :D

At one time it was a 180 with filled with Mbuna... it would still be nice.

Decisions, Decisions . . .
One that comes to mind is about a 220+ gal with about a dozen full size altum angels (you know, the ones over a foot tall) and a few hundred feeder cardinals for the angels. A huge submerged tree branch for cover and a school of assorted cory cats on the bottom (C. reynoldsi, C. barbatus, C. aneus "laser green" etc.) Aahhh to dream!

For me...a 300 gallon tank or so...tons of driftwood and marsh plants, most coming out of the water. There'd be a school of archers, some orange chromides, and other brackish fish...

[Bryce Masuk]

I am in the process of making a 180 for a bunch of fronts
It should be killer...

[corr]

Sounds awesome Bryce!

thats a killer site. there are some really nice pics of that tank after the house is all finished. looks amazing

i'm not a huge fan of the fake rock work and coral, but it does hide the pipe work extremely well

[SerpentLust]

Hehe I'm no good with sizes, but mine would probably be built into the wall with coral and tropical fish in it...especially clown fish! And and and it has to be self cleaning, that would be sweet.

Corr..where did you get that pic from? Thats wicked!!!

Someone at Cichlid-forums.com posted it but it originated here - www.seavisions.com. Try not to drool on the keyboard! :)

[Emily-Fisher]

My dream aquarium would be a 200 long aquarium with a sand substrate. Inside there would either be:
A) Newts, frogs, water insects, other marsh animals
B) Sunfish, snails, frogs
C) Turtles, turtles, TURTLES!!

Like Youkai's dream aquarium, mine would have lots of marsh plants and driftwood. :D

[vincenzo]

dream aquarium ??? hmmmmm if money was no object then i would have to say i would like to turn an entire room into an aquarium with a seating area in the middle it would be populated with south american cichlids and i would swim in it every morning.
i don't think i would need a tv anymore then and that would be just fine with me :)

[crazyboy]

well i would want my v room to be a big aquarium tunnel with he entertainment center and couch in the middle. then fill the tank with lots of clownfish and sand and coral. and blatty blatty blah

Hmmm...what are those set-ups called where the tank is a terrarium and an aquarium in one?

My dream tank would involve a green house. The tank would be about 10'L, 10'W and 16'H. It's glass viewing area would be in the basement of my house, while the top portion would be the greenhouse. There would be 4' of water in the tank, along the basement window and extending into the rest of the area, with water plants, plants that grow out of the water, and fantastic fish swimming around. The rest would be a jungle. Dense live tropical plants, with finches and lizards in the foliage. Ofcourse, there would be an area for me to relax and enjoy my private jungle. I'll just have to find myself a Tarzan to complete the picture.

I can dream can't I?
