Benny503 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 This is.... real.... Can you believe it? Could someone estimate to see how much the setup itself cost? http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=1075675 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxx155 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Been following that tank for a while. It even has several live web-cams you can view the tank with (I think you can even actually operate one). My guess is cost has easily gone over $50,000 (and that includes all the construction they had to do). When its all said and done (with corals and fish) it will come up to $70,000 easily.

ahreno Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Yeah... I'd say $50k is waaay low. The guy that put together my 300 gallon spent around $20k (or at least so he said when he sold me the house). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamatSLS Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 This is easily in the 650K+ range with livestock. The tank alone had to be over 100K. I wouldn't even want to know how much the container+crane+positioning the tank inside the building ran him. That's crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny503 Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 From what I read, he is a web page design. He is building this tank for this company, the CEO of that company is in the picture too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
