That thing is insane, You would have to know a trucker just to have a trailer big enough to carry that thing. But if you had that you would be the envy of everyone on this site. The possibilities are endless with a tank that big.

Thats exactly what I've been looking for, I need to upgrad right now!

Seriously though, wouldn't it be great if the Calgary zoo project would keep their word and buy this thing? Its perfect for a zoo marine display project. Some one should email the mayor a pic of this tank.

There was some mension of a marine exhibit at the zoo when Bronco took office. He was supposably going to dedicate several million to zoo expansion. Weather or not this will actually happen is unclear. I'm still trying to find the mayor's email address.

Just for fun I emailed the mayor with this link and the first link on Canreef regarding the zoo project. Basically asked him how things are going with that. I wonder if I'll even get a response?
