Behind the Scenes: 375g Aquarium in a Waiting Room
This is a 375 gallon freshwater aquarium in the Pediatric Intensive Care Waiting Room in a Children’s Hospital.
It is setup as a room divider with the tank measuring 6’ Long x 18” Wide x 48” High. The walls are 1” thick acrylic which can be a pain to clean at times.
It is accessed by raising and propping up the front canopy panel. It has an Ocean Clear canister for the filtration system. I custom ordered the acrylic tank and built the stand myself.
This is the tank that you will see me sitting inside of in some pictures. I have broken it down and climbed in a couple of times over the years to redo decorations and modify the filtration system.
It grosses around $1,980 per year which comes to around $165 per hour.
