It can be done if you're a specialist in marine life, you have an aquarium as big as a house, and you can afford to feed it.

Whales grow faster than any other marine animal too...It also depends what kidn of whale you're talking about, and if you have a 40985309587309860983069 gallon tank.

It can and is being done. I think it cost like 10 Million...so it's not impossible, but for the common blue collar man it is. The electric bill alone would be $100,000+/mon
I dont think there would really be that high of an electric bill saying that the person is smart enough not to put a roof over the tank.

Just build your house on the beach next to the ocean, then have all concrete from demolition projects dumped into the ocean and build yourself a nice horseshoe reef around your home. Let nature take care of the sunshine and leave some areas for water to come and go out of your new play pen. Scuba diving gear extra.

when I use to have my baby orca whale, I kept him in a one million gallon tank. He use to eat fish like a pig all the time. I could play with him and he would give me free rides. One of the best animals I use to have.

Otherwise you'de need to obtain wildlife permits first before even thinking about a whale tank. The permits alone could run upwards of $100,000
I feel sorry for those whales after looking at that. All they do is swim in circles.
