Big Tanganyikan Fish Tank 3000 Gal by Ponds and Plants and Petra Works.mp4

This Is a 3000 Gallon tank we set up in an Africa exhibit in the San Antonio Zoo, we worked together with Petra Works to make the background as natural and real as possible. The Tank was designed to home fish from lake Tanganyika, of course the Neolaprologus Brichardi took over the tank and reproduced like rabbits. The tank also has a school of Frontosa, Leulepi, Julidochromis, Compressiceps, Duboisi ... And a few others that i cant think of right now.

Thank you, The work in the tank was done by us, as for the price i cant tell you at the time. There are to many variables when building them. We make all our Backgrounds with concrete, carving and acid stain is what gives it that rock look. We are not too convinced using foam core for our structures. Look at some of the other videos we have and feel free to ask more questions.

One of the best Tang set-ups I have seen for a long time, not too sure if the Brichards will last long when the Fronts grow to full size.

@MrKeithHoward The Brich population stays surprisingly stable. the frontosa are breading, the brich's are also, every fish in the tank has bread successfully.

Please check our other monster fish tanks in our channel.

can you also show an overview of the technical setup you used to run this amazing setup?

[LostMexicanFilms]

Hey Tom sorry about the late response. Most of our tanks are set up with Bulk Heads for Water Overflow, the overflow water then passes a gravity feed Wet Dry Sump System where bacteria can grow and feed on the algae as the water passes thru. After the water passes thru the Wet-Dry it gets pumped thru canister filters and an optional UV sterilizer. Then after all this, it makes it back to the fish tank! It sounds complicated but it really is not. Its the most hassle free way to keep Water Clean!
