base size 5x9
The stereotypical "shark tank", the Belfast tank is one of the first tanks you'll acquire with the rounded edges trait. This trait is necessary for maintaining a lot of the fast-moving shark species, which do not tolerate corners in their tanks.


min size 3x6
Even disregarding this trait, however, the Belfast tank is one of the largest and straightforward tanks to maintain, and so can be used to house medium or large fish of most types. Its large size also makes it excellent for shoaling fish, which require the company of their kin to stay healthy.


5 vol per tile
The Belfast tank sets a new standard for height when unlocked, requiring a platform height of two stairs in order for staff to feed its residents. It otherwise, however, behaves very similarly to a deep observer tank.


2 height
The smallest Belfast tank buildable is 3x6, and the largest is 5x9.
 
Provides 5 volume per tile.

{{Megaq object|image=[[File:Megaq small tunnel tank.png|100px|Small Tunnel Tank]]|capacity=72-240|level=7|research=Science|depth=4|cost=2279|prestige=5}}
base size = 5x9
The Small Tunnel Tank operates very similarly to the Belfast tank as above. It has the same height, feeding location, and can be viewed from three sides like the Belfast. While being slightly smaller than the Belfast, this tank uniquely contains a tunnel. Every time a guest walks into the tunnel for the first time, 5 prestige is gained.


min size = 3x5
Aside from this bonus prestige, however, the two tanks are remarkably similar. Despite the sharp corners near the back of the tank, it still counts as a rounded tank for sharks and other animals that require rounded edges.


6 vol per tile
The smallest small tunnel tank is 3x5, and the largest is 5x9.


2 height
Provides 6 volume per tile.

6 col per tile
 
The large tunnel tank is surrounded on both sides by feeding platforms, creating an actual tunnel that guests can walk through. Chaining these together can create the appearance of an underwater tunnel, with fish on all sides.


3 height
The feeding height of the large tunnel tank is 3 units, requiring a rather lengthy staircase to reach the feeding platform.


base size = 9x11
The smallest large tunnel tank is 3x11, and can be expanded on construction to 9x11.


min size = 3x11
Provides 6 volume per tile.


'''Official Description:''' ''The Large Tunnel Tank is great for dividing two areas while giving a new perspective to your Guests.''

6 vol per tile
One of the largest tanks in the game, the Chicago tank appears more like a corner tank. Like the preceding tanks, it is also rounded, allowing for sharks and other animals to be satisfied.


access height 2
It is also sunken into the ground, giving it a height of only 2. This lowers the staircase requirement for the tank's feeding platform.


base size 9x9
Its smallest size is 7x7, and its largest is 9x9.


min size 7x7
Provides 6 volume per tile.


'''Official Description:''' ''The 'Chicago' Tank is a high capacity round-edged tank arranged in a corner configuration. It comes in two variants, depending on whether you want the viewing edge to be on the inside or outside edge of the corner.''

min 7x7 standard 9x9
One of the largest tanks in the game, the Chicago tank appears more like a corner tank. Like the preceding tanks, it is also rounded, allowing for sharks and other animals to be satisfied.
 
The only difference between the normal Chicago tank and the Internal version is where the feeding platforms can be placed - on the inside of the corner, or on the outside.


6 vol per tile
It is also sunken into the ground, giving it a height of only 2. This lowers the staircase requirement for the tank's feeding platform.


access height 2
Its smallest size is 7x7, and its largest is 9x9.


Provides 6 volume per tile.

min size 8x8 max 20x20
The largest tank in the game, capable of holding any fish - including the largest fish in the world, the whale shark. Acquiring this tank and getting the whale shark is the core of the final mission of the base game.
 
Its minimum size is 8x8, with this massive tank able to balloon to 20x20 at its maximum.


access height 3
Has a height of 3 units, requiring a fairly long staircase to reach the feeding platform.


7 vol per tile
Provides 7 volume per tile.


'''Official Description:''' ''The Mega Tank is made from Titanium Alloy and advanced polymers to give it the strength to hold a vast volume of water.''

{{Megaq object|image=[[File:Megaq kriesel tank.png|100px|Kriesel Tank]]|capacity=24-64|level=6|research=Science|depth=2|cost=240}}
max size = 4x4
This unremarkable aquarium is the only one of its type. It has a circulating current that jellyfish require. Jellyfish oftentimes cannot be housed with standard fish anyway, making the Kriesel tank exclusive to jellyfish.


min size = 3x2
The Kriesel tank can be used to populate other fish, but it also cannot support any decorations, making it unsuitable for fish that demand greenery, rocks, or caves. It is likewise listed as having a fixed substrate (though technically this tank does not have any).


4 vol per tile
It is otherwise an unremarkable aquarium that requires a single staircase to reach its platform.


1 height
The smallest Kriesel tank that can be built is 3x2, and the largest is 4x4.


no scenery, fixed substrate
Provides 4 volume per tile.
