we bought a 110 gallon stock tank last week and we set it up. its pretty good, though we didn't tighten the plug at the bottom so there was a very slow leak, something like maybe a gallon a day, but because of the size, there wasn't even a noticable drop in water level, especially since my brother spilt 20 odd gallons of water on the floor at once during one of the water changes. filter is waaaaay too small, i think its only doing like 1/3rd of the recomended 10x gph, but hopefully it'll be able to make my own filter soon and solve that problem. we have all our goldfish in it right now, but thats only 4 fish anyways. 1 common, around 4", 1 ranchu, around 2 1/2", 1 oranda, around 2 1/2" and another oranda, around 1 3/4". they all seem to be doing well now and i bet they like it more than the 25 gallon tub we had them in until we got this set up.

thanks for the compliment guys. i'm hoping the fish will grow more now. i'm also ordering a maxijet 1200 and a maxijet mod so that it'll pump around 1400 gph and i'll use it as a filter pump. hopefully it'll still do atleast 1100 gph with plumbing and then i'll attach it to a rubbermaid container filled with foam/sponge. thankfully stock tanks have a drain plug at the bottom too, so i can use that as my filter pickup tube. should hopefully make the setup look more clean. i'm wondering though, should i have the maxijet pump in the tank, or in the filter box?
