I have seen the thread too. It is "alan reef" tank right? He built a special room out of brick, grow out tanks, and everything. He spent allot of time,money and effort on that project. IMO it looks wonderful, and it makes jealous I cant have a huge tank too. He has pics of him, and his kids in the tank doing the plumbing. Its aw-some!

Did you read the thread? you're like "naw my friends tank is 13ft long, so that 17ft long tank must be smaller?" :notsure:

ok, sorry. Didn't think you would take it that hard. Sheesh... Why don't you find out the exact dimensions so we can figure it out, ok? Until then, I don't believe that 4 more feet in length makes up for the fact that the 1400 gallon in my post is AT LEAST twice as tall. And if we were talking about SYSYEM size, not TANK size, then fine., That 1400 gallon tank is on a 3400 gallon system.

Fishkiller...all I was saying is that IF you had read the thread you would have seen they did post the dimensions.... :yes:

Oaktree- I'll tell him. You are in GA, you should come see it during feeding time one day. It's killer!

No that'd definaltey around 3 ft tall...look at the one with the guy standing next to it comming out of the back of the truck...
Pretty close to the top of the guys head...considering he's maybe 6ft tall at most..it's about half his size....could be 3ft. :thinking:

No matter what you say.... If the height is 3 feet, the depth is not 5 feet. And if the depth is 5 feet, the height definitely is not 3 feet. Choose one.

Hey you were quick to point out the tank prolly wasn't 3900 gallons...I was just returning the favor
Also had you read the thread, you would have known that I was just going by the guy who posted it said it was 14500 litres and I just did the conversion...3900 gallons seamed kinda big to me as well...O'well...
