Hey bro, I'm Razlan added you on Facebook earlier.
Err.. you're asking the wrong person haha. I'm not a contractor bro and my aquarium also normal standard sizing so no custom work.

But if you are going to have a 5'x5' viewing pane and then have the walls made of concrete that still doesn't indicate the size of the actual tank itself. The 5'x5' is just the window right? Doesn't mean it'll take up the entire front of the tank. Basically what is the length, depth and height of the tank? And then the front panel consists of a 5'x5' viewing glass which is massive. In order to support the water pressure it would be expensive. You're better off making a longer tank rather than a taller one because the water pressure and weight against the glass increases significantly with height.

Then for the base of the tank, you'd probably need to make it out of rebar and cement. Or at very least thick steel with multiple support beams. The concrete structure (if you do go with concrete) would need the drain holes all built in as well plus allowances for plumbing of the PVC. Then where would you put it? The weight of the actual thing means either ground floor or if on upper floors better be on a load bearing part of your house structure.

The filtration system is also going to cost a bomb. But actually, if you DIY everything you could get away with a rather reasonably priced setup. Try MFK, there are heaps of DIY tanks there much bigger than what you want and they share their plans/drawings.

Bros,Sg gonna ban all those toothy fish like gars and atf,will it happen in Malaysia too?
If yes,what will they do to those already owning the fish? 

I believe its already happened? Ask the fish suppliers to confirm if Gars can be brought in legally anymore. Because people release them into local rivers and lakes - that's why any non-native fish is often banned or viewed as a threat.

Some are concrete, while some aren't. The biggest concrete pond is the 40,000gal pond. The rest are already mature ecosystems over 10 years old in some cases.

big ones or small ones?
my friends has one around 30cm dunno he selling anot
one LFS here got small ones for sale

CTY aquarium,Penang
I think they also have one vatf left 

ggMing is acquainted with Fins & Greens is it ?

Pimpin had stated the address here, however, any landmarks or map i can look at? Sorry i am not familiar with OUG, hardly go there. Would love to visit his shop if any.

ggMing,
thanx for offering those marvelous fishes 
i'll be waiting for red tail payara and arapaima next month...
about the aquascape short course, me and my wife are interested to attend the course, do notify when it will be held k 

one more thing, does anyone know what species is this fish?? is it available here?

These are tiny little monster that hides in sand and prey on fishes from below. Not salt water! Max size around 20cm! Guess what are they!

I've decided to sell the business and move onto other things.

Thanks guys for all the support all this time.

Guys, does your fishes jump often ? I was reading bout Arapaima and Sturgeons seems like they jump alot in the wild. How bout in captive ponds ? Need to cover ?

Was wondering, do Bichirs ever die from over eating?

I wouldn't think they will, but if it cannot digest the food then it will be deep trouble. Used to have a small senegal last time due to keeping with Otocinclus (algae eater) it swallowed the fish but then it died one week later coz of the spines and head bone which stuck in the stomach...  

How big is your endli? As long as the algae eater not more than half the size of him then should be ok, and small enough to digest slowly without harming the internal organs....coz my senegal end up got ruptured stomach. Did open up the fish and found bone lumps with spiky bits of fin stuck together....so scary....

Hello~im new here. Nice to meet you all sifu~ this is my small "monster" fish tank i would like to share. Check out my video of my tank, sorry for the low quality video. http://youtu.be/IaAMBqlbxqc
hope to make more frens~

Seriously, I don't know. But I'm guessing the Arapaima isn't going to be kept all by itself right? Surely there will be tank mates so short answer is as big as you can afford.

What did you have in mind? Both setup and budget wise.
Fins n' Greens ada lah these tanks, plus can choose to have add on sump filtration that sits nicely at the edge.
