Hello all :clap:

I was wondering if anyone here has a large aquarium that is around 75gallons and up - I would like to get a really big aqarium but I am not sure how I am going to take care of it - I have the water changing part figured out but wouldn't a large aqarium be too tall for someone in a wheelchair to reach into - even with a net.

Do you have it sitting on a very low stand - how is it set up?


Thanks for any info - I am really curious and looking for info :clap:

You haven't put down where you live so i'm not sure if this happens in your area...but there are mobile companies that come out and clean fish tanks and can look after them on a regular basis. I'm not sure how expensive it is though :clap:

That's a big tank...I got a small one, 10 gals and it's kind of easy to clean up and what not...but with that big of a tank, I have no clue...sorry. :clap:
