I think i should take this off because it ruins the thread :-(. This does not belong to a canreefer tank. I think we are more interested to see the biggest canreefer tank. Yes the tank is in pump hill

Actually NO!! I was interested in who in Calgary had the biggest tank period. Canreefer or not. Reason I was curious was because I over heard someone at a lfs talk about their 1000g tank and I knew that they were not on canreef. I know there are large tanks out there!

Awwwww. You think your friend would be interested in presenting his/her tank here? I'm really curious what's in it and what runs it.
Ditto!! I didn't believe that this tank was actually in Calgary but if it is I need more info on it !! See this is exactly why I started this thread. I figure someone must know someone that knows someone who has a gigantic tank, but 5000g ?!?! Holy mother Mary!!

Biggest private tank I've seen in town is a 10' 500g. But I have also heard rumors of a couple 1000g+ systems here and I'd love to see em.

5000 is unimaginable........ 12 X 12 X 4 tall is only 4300 gallons.

I think it was someone at Golds who has told me a few times a person with either a 16 footer or 1600 gallon tank buys a lot of their stock. I could be wrong on both counts but I've heard rumours like that.

For every person willing to share system info with us there are probably 20 that don't. There are for sure many tanks out there we'll never hear of, which is too bad if you think about the potential those people have to add to the knowledge base, whether they're responsible for the care and upkeep of their tank themselves or whether it's farmed out (either way).
5000 gallons - does make me wonder if that's a full-on reef tank or just one heck of a FOWLR. It's good stuff either way but you rarely see really large REEF systems. I know I sold a couple fish to a fella who had a huge system a couple years ago but it was FOWLR (incidentally he is on Canreef but never posts, and I wonder how many people fit into that category).
How come the tank linked to earlier was removed? A 6' tall tank? I'd have loved to see some details?

Sorry for messing this thread up. :-(, but if you really want to know the tank then yes indeed it got ppl come out and clean it, it is FO tank and it have huge buffer and lots of angels and tangs and all other fishes. If i have to guess it is 13x10x6 i think. It takes up the whole wall

maybe my estimation is wrong but it is very big when u see it in person
The room is way bigger than my living room and the tank takes the whole wall on one side
Anyway, here it is again.
