I wouldn't know if that's a saltwater tank, but if it is it's impressive. I don't think I could maintain a fishbowl, let alone 80 gallons worth[sm=yikesomg.gif]

Anyone else have huge tanks?

Looks like it was set up for a marine tank. The bigger the tank, the easier it is to keep the water safe, more volume, takes longer for something to go wrong. Small tanks like a 10gal are a bitch to keep decent fish in cause when something goes wrong, it shocks the tank in a hurry, unlike a larger, well circulated tank. Bushmaster, make it a marine tank, plenty big enough to stock some impressive fish in it.

Saltwater is more expensive, but the fish selection is awesome.
Personally I prefer freshwater, but all I have is a 50Gal with
2 Neon Tetras, 2 Ropefish, and 2 Plecostomus

I think the rule of thumb is about 1 square inch worth of fish for evry 10 gallons, so my tank is pretty close to being maxed out (my Plecos are getting pretty big)

Oh man I would give my left nut to have a nice marine aquarium! They're too expensive for me though. I would get a pufferfish if I was you.
