I don't know about the cost, but that aside, in the event you haven't thought of it, a 1,000 gallon tank will weigh about as much as 2 Mercedes. Be absolutely sure the floor and building can withstand that much weight in a fairly small area. I would also be more than a little concerned about the ability of the acrylic to withstand what would be a lot of pressure in the event of an inadvertent impact. Plus, if you keep warm water fish in it, you will probably need an air conditioner to off-set the effects of the thermal mass

What are the dimensions of this monster?
