A-b Or C For Green Water Tank Options

[wombatt]

I'm having a custom clear acrylic tank made for my indoor green water setup. Wanted to get some advice and recomendations from the bros here to the sizes i'm thinking about.

A - 98"L x 35"W x 18"H = 270 us gal. = 1022 liters

B - 72"L x 36"W x 18"H = 202 us gal. = 765 liters

C - 72"L x 20"W x 20"H = 125 us gal. = 473 liters

I know the obvious would be "A" bigger is always better. But I don't know if changing 1022 liters every 5 - 10 days is going to be a big chore and a long one too, would like to hear some feed back on that too. "B" seems to be a nice compromise. Problem with "C" I think is that if I get more fish then I'm out of room. Planning on having about 100 liters per fish or lets say maximun of 6 fish in A, B and C. Thanks again all!

i'm not so sure if the electricity bill is a concern to you, as lighting up 1ton of water can be very expensive to me.

I know CyberET Tyring not to think about that right now. Hey if its all sucessful in the end and having nice plumb fishes, it'll be worth it.
