Re: FOUR THOUSAND LITERS????
I will be looking at houses for the next couple years. And one of the first things I will be doing before I make an offer is calling in a structural enigeer to indentify the cost of making the 1st floor support 20k+ pounds. I dont plan on having a 4000liter tank (~1000gallon) tank but a couple 500gallon+ tanks and a plethora of sub 200 gallon tanks. Lot of planing and designing involved but the end result should be worth it.

Re: FOUR THOUSAND LITERS????
Here's a house I was looking at. The pool is inside the middle of the house. I thought it would make a great fish room. Perfect for my next puffer!

My mind just went to images of the pool converted to a fish tank with an mbu breeding project.

I would never attempt breeding them. Too many mbus in unhappy situations, already!

Re: FOUR THOUSAND LITERS????
True. Has anyone heard of someone converting an indoor pool into an indoor pond?

I don't see why not. They usually use sand filters that would work great!

Re: FOUR THOUSAND LITERS????
I'd love to have a saltwater indoor pond like that! With a few windows on the side... Heh you could go snorkeling in your own house!

Re: FOUR THOUSAND LITERS????
As long the the correct ventilation and construction materials were used you shouldnt have a mold problem. But thats not always the case and would make for an expensive overhual. I can see the hesitation.
