400 gallon aquarium?

Question

I have 2 catfishes but they are starting to grow too fast. A lot of people told me to get a 400 gallon tank.

Do you know where I can get a 400 gallon tank? I live in Phoenix AZ

Answer 1

Tenecor is an acrylic aquarium manufacturer in Phoenix. They can custom build any size tank.

Other options would be to check your local pet shops. A couple of good ones are:

You might also try checking your local classified ads.

Answer 2

There are a lot of custom glass and acrylic companies that will make one for you. You can also make one in several different ways. I have a 360 that is structurally made out of wood with glass on both sides and it's beautiful. A friend made one predominately out of cement with a front and one side made out of glass though it's a lot larger than 400 gallons. Another friend has several that are made out of wood and are in the 360-720 range. Check for custom aquarium manufacturers in your area and talk to your local glass or acrylic dealers they'll have some good leads for you.

Enjoy the aquarium, there's nothing better than moster fish in a moster tank.

Answer 3

do you want that huge of a tank? that may weight 2 tonnes when filled with water. I suggest an outdoor pond you can build one yourself, just check an aquarium in your area.

The man thing to do is keep it from freezing in the winter but do you even get frost in AZ.
If you do build an outdoor pound it will run you less than 2000 dollars overall and you can add gold fish or kio. some 150 gallon tank set ups cost more than that.
are you pretty rich?

Hey Turd, this site has some of the best selection and pricing I have seen. Look under Aquariums and at the bottom they have a 500 gallon, but you can find even larger on the Commercial Aquariums category (I recomend as large as you can fit with the TSN and RTC).

Answer 5

You're the guy with the Tiger Shovel-nose and Red tailed cats, aren't you? Actually if you're going to keep them together(not a good idea) you will need something more like a 900. You can buy acrylic tanks made to order,and it won't matter too much where you live,the freight costs are pretty high anywhere. Keep us posted.

Answer 6

all right man! good job taking the iniative to get your fish a tank to size it for life! id suggest checking craigslist. you can get very good deals there. i picked up a 220 with stand, canopy, filters, and a test kit for 750.



WOAH! W8 DUDE YOU HAVE A RED TAILED CATFISH?!? I hate to tell you this, but a redtailed catfish gets MASSIVE. most people i work with say 1500 gallons minimum. i say 1000, but obviously, thats not your average tank. i suggest you find a new home for the redtailed catfish, as they get far too large for even a gigantic tank like a 400g, not to mention it would eat your tiger shovelnose.

Answer 7

probaly at a pet shop or a an aquarium store it would probaly have to be ordered or custom made...400 gallon is pretty big.....

Answer 8

Imagine how much 4 tons would weigh. This is about how heavy this tank would be. You would have to get this tank custom built and reinforce the floors. You might as well release them or make a pond. You can call up some local stores and see if they know.

Answer 9

I know Oceanic makes custom tanks, it take a few weeks to make and cost a bit of cash but they can. http://www.oceanicsystems.com/

Answer 10
