Filters for LARGE tanks

If you end up going with a large volume container for your filter, take a
look at the poly "stock tanks" generally available from farm supply
businesses. I think 50 and 100gal are standard sizes. A 100 gal stock tank
should cost you less than $100, one person can lift it, and drag/bounce it
down stairs and such.

check over in rec.ponds, they've got huge filters, and great ideas.... I
was thinking something along the lines of a couple 150s, setup as wet/dry
filters, floss, bioballs, etc....

HI

I am starting plans for a 1000G tank and am trying to get as much
information in advance as possible. The current question is FILTERS???

Any suggestions? This will be a Fresh Water Game Fish Tank. Crappies,
Bluegills (brem), Trout, Bass and the like. I am currently running a
120G
and the filtering load is quite heavy. Someone mentioned a swimming
pool
(sand) filter, but I think it will plug up quickly.

Thanks for all your help.

JOhn :-)
