I bought a new house and all I wonder is whare can I set up a fish tank lol.

I'm thinking I want to build a huge fish tank. my new house has 15ft high ceilings and more room than any 22 year old single guy will ever need. being a Leo (and a first time buyer) this tank will have to be larger than life. is there a way I can build a tank 10 ft high by 8 feet wide and 6 feet in width? what kind of materials would I need?

Only if you have quite a bit of money. You can buy acrylic aquariums made to order in about any size or shape. They weigh quite a bit less than glass, and a very tall glass aquarium needs very thick glass. If an aquarium is really tall, it may also present some maintenance challenges.

You can walk into an aquarium shop and buy a 125 gallon setup, which is close to the maximum for ready made aquariums. Even empty, a large aquarium is heavy and difficult to move. Add the weight of the substrate and water and you're going to need a really strong floor. If you want to breed fish and have several varieties, a bunch of smaller aquariums may be the way to go. Since you're starting with a clean slate, you could design a really great looking aquarium room with tropical plants and bamboo furniture and all that. The design style of my own aquarium/computer room is called Middle American Chaos.

Congratulations on the new house!

OOPS! I didn't answer the question about materials. Somewhere on ask.com there is a chart that tells you how thick glass and acrylic need to be for specific aquarium designs. On one of the aquarium forums, a guy had built his own aquarium and set it up like a wall divider. He had to reinforce the floor. If an aquarium is unevenly supported it can develop stress cracks.
