WOW... 8O

if its ok what are you wanting to put into it?

i would start with the glass/perspex viewing bit first, once you have bought that  do the cheaper bit of building a steel framed box linned with ply and sealed with polyethylene (watertanks) but a tank that big will cost you thousands.....

ohh and make it like it is a tralier with a removabe pith so it can be towed anywere if needed in the future..

damm thats big

or maybe just make a big besser block and concrete pond, maybe cheaper.

what the!!!!!!  :o
what do u need it for? :?
I think it would be easier to buy a pool :lol:

Make it out of steel reneforced concrete slabs, put 10mm of fibreglass on the inside and outside of that, and get a fricken thick peice of perspex for the front window.

Ohh and check on your public liability insurance while your at it.

Hi Mate,

Check out link in Saltwater under (And you think u have a problem.)

Also if you can email me I will send you a list of Plastic Fabractors that would be able to give you prices on lined tanks & Acrylic windows and full acrylic tanks.
