The tank is an existing precast waste water tank that is being abandoned because new sewer system is being installed. The tank is located about 20 feet from a deep water canal.I'm very interested in how the tank is going in ground and why? Keep us posted. I'm sure a lot of people are going to tell you its a bad idea to pump in ocean water. Welcome to AA!
I am not sure why you would bother with such an expensive project for just 500g unless you do not have room in your house or you plan to make a side panel that can be seen underground, to which I still don't see the point. Either way, the water should be prefiltered in several stages before returning to your tank. I would not have the return directly back to the ocean nor am I sure you would even be allowed.
I'll check with the DEP to see if there is a problem with circulating salt water from our manmade canal.I'm very interested in how the tank is going in ground and why? Keep us posted. I'm sure a lot of people are going to tell you its a bad idea to pump in ocean water. Welcome to AA!
yesAre you pumping from the Ocean?
No water bill, I will be circulating sea water from our canal.Wow that's one big tank! I would get one then swim with my koi and then cry over the water bill. Lol
Pretty much a salt water swimming pool for salt water critters.its pretty much a swimming pool with salt water : )
You are right, part of the $1000 costs is pumping, cleaning, testing, inspecting of the tank prior to filling with flowable concrete in the abandonment proceedures. I am also planning on a liner for the fish tank.Hmmm...If this used to be a septic tank I would think there would be all kinds of "stuff" in it that would be harmful to both the ocean and anything living you put in it. I'm not sure how things are done in the Keys but here our septic tanks are cement, which means all kinds of stuff will have been absorbed by the material that could leach back out.
I don't know, do you?is that even legal???pumping into and out of the ocean
