Having an 8 foot tank now is a lot of fun, especially as the fish is swimming with you as you walk by.
I would love to to have that 120" tank for sure but the tank is even taller than the one I have now, that would not be fun at all!

This tank is very oddly proportioned, and 43" tall would be a nightmare...

If this tank ever turns into an "I need it out now come get it" I could see insulating my custom shed and creating a fish room 2.0 but at $3000 I would probably be better off spending the money to build an elevated indoor pond with more volume. Do you hang yourself over a 43" deep tank or just get in it to move rocks around the bottom?

You get in. My 220g is 30in deep and if I ever want to remove the large rocket is going to be a chore.

I love tall show tanks and I deal with all my tanks being on the taller side so Im used to a step ladder and a longer python gravel vac tube to get things done. But going from my 30" tall 300 gallon to a 43" tall would be a challenge for sure.
