Here is some pictures of my DIY 500 + gallon shark lagoon. It is electronically automated with an assortment of features and the dimensions of the tank are a little over 8 feet long x 4 feet wide x 2 feet deep. :D

I hope you enjoy the photos!

I just wanted to add, kudos to you for creating a huge tank for your sharks. Sadly, I've seen sharks in 55 gallon tanks (or less) as their PERMANENT homes.

None of our tanks will ever be a perfect replication of the ocean, but we strive to create a comfortable new environment for our inhabitants.

I'm glad that you have a tank where your sharks have ample swimming room and I'm sure that your water quality is on par with the effort it took to create such a massive tank.
 
haha love it! Is there like a clear side panel? or do you have to watch from above?
 
That is awesome, that takes a lot of sq. Ft. From a house though. How long did it take you to build that and then set it up?
 
My husband and I drooled over this a bit. So cool! :drool:

Agreed.

This is one of if not the coolest "tank" I've ever seen. Awesome
