That is the best the zoom will go, to take that pic I had to stand in the corner of the room. The depth of the tank is decieving , because the wall at the back is not back wall of the tank, that wall was put in there for support of the house(not happy with that b/c it is hard to get light to the back of the tank). You have to remember the whole house is reinforced concrete and it is built over the basement in my house, So the tank is part of the house.
Water changes are done by using a 700g concrete holding tank , and I use a pump to get the water up from my basement.All filters and equipment relating to the tank are in the basement as well. It usually takes about an hour to do a water change. Vacuming the gravel is the hardest and let me tell you I dont think I have done a good job on it yet.And I usually use PVC pipe to extend the lenght of everything, and use a step ladder to stand on.
As for the cost I would rather not say. The plants are from 400g planted tank.
