after asking and asking my mom she's going to get me on and were getting it made from seaquariums who make custom aquariums up to 10,000 gallons and will come and maintain it as well as stock it due to what you want in it and get your equipment alot cheaper. So were getting it built there. I have a large stock list I know I can't get all of it but this is what I got on the list. Blueface angel, 2 volatain lionfish, Emperor angel, Majestic angel, queen angel, 2 copper banded butterflys, 2 longnose butterflys, 3 marron clowns, chainlink eel, 3 frogfish longlures, panther grouper, nurse shark (defenitly nurse shark), 2 minatus groupers, flying fish, 3 lookdowns, bicolor parrotfish, porcupine puffer, spotted sweetlips, blond naso tang, purple tang, 3 blue naso tangs, 3 yellow tangs, 2 sailfin tangs, powder brown tang, 2 HI black triggers, clown trigger, niger trigger, crosshatch trigger, unicorn tang, samuri squrriel fish, leaf fish, parrot fish princess, zebra lionfish, green moray eel. I'm getting good lights but not big exspensive lights for coral I'm having fake coral but still there is the skimmer and filter so hope I have good luck.

That's it?? That's hardly any fish man! I say add more! like a few more sharks and triggers and some rays

well i dont agree with the whole thing of leaving the big tanks up to the older people.... ok.. any teen has the same or more strive to care for one of these tanks. just because we are young dont mean that we are helpless i mean i have seat up more tanks then most of the guys one here. so i think that if u put ur mind to it you can do anything..

alright, well... if we're still going to go on with this, i guess i'll start: when will you be getting this tank? what kind of skimmer are you looking at getting? what floor of the house are you putting it? what size sump?

All I no is, yes it is hardwood floor but were bracing it up with steel bars alot of them. Also in 1 to 2 monthes we will be getting the aquarium along the way getting the equipment i'ts going to be a 200 gallon sump or a large canistar filter and I don't know what type of skimmer I need to ask that other guy who has a 750 but I need to ask this other person on another site who has a 4,000.gal aquarium for advice to. Alot of live sand and live rock and it's going to be like a real reef in the middle there will be a huge centerpeice and on the sides a real reef structure but with fake corals. I've eliminated on the fish volatain lionfish, copper banded butterfly for now, chainlink eel, nurse shark, green moray eel. But I definitly know i'm getting porcupine puffer, sailfin tang, HI black trigger, clown trigger, niger trigger, undaltualed trigger, brown naso tang, snowflake eel, emperator angel, bluface angel, quenn angel, unicorn tang, squrril fish, bicolor parrot fish, leaf fish, parrot fish princess, sand flounder, school of heniochus, yellow tangs, 3 frog fish maybe, powder blue tang, purple tang, spotted sweetlips, majestic angel, 3 look downs, hippo tang, maybe 3 marron clownfish or cinnamon clowns. Tell me if this is a good list.

Just curious, what size tank do you currently have? I could have sworn you said a 55gal but in this thread you said you upgraded to over 250 gal. https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/349437/want-fish#post_2945430
Me and others on here don't want to waste our time with this fantasy fish tank of yours if you're lying. Just be honest with us...

yeah man, how old are you anyway? I'm 18 and taking care of my two 75g's is alot of work, so the guy/kid who said age doesn't matter, having the experience to back you up does matter, alot of the older people on here who have the larger tanks have gone through and learned the lessons and made the mistakes, the younger people like the "teens" aren't always at that point. So I think comparing a 55g tank to a 750g tank is ridiculous and it really just sounds like mommy is buying you a big tank cause you get what you want. but like bioneck and txfishman said, don't waste our time, if you are being serious then we will be glad to help you out.
and your stock list is crazy, in the bad way. Do you know how much this is all going to cost and how much to upkeep it?
