$3k for a custom setup sounds mighty reasonable to me, I'm up to $2700 on my
125g... (but that includes fish and food and such)

Where is the best place to custom order an Acrylic Tank? Guessing
Acrylic
is the best way to go on large tanks 200+gal?

When a friend researched putting a 200+ tank in his house, he had to
contract with a builder, for codes, foundation checking, load balancing,
structural integrity and other issues...

He found that some/alot of contractors know people who "custom install"
acrylic tanks per the blue prints from the owners...

You might find one such builder/contractor in your area... They can build,
install, plumb, run your wires, whatever you need.... but yep, did cost
him
nearly $3k for a 285gallon tank in his living room... and in his kitchen
and
in his den... it's a 3 sided tank. it's something like 8feet long, 3feet
tall, 4feet wide
