OMG Prices start at $4000 for a custom 50 gal tank?

USA Today did a story on custom aquariums: http://www.usatoday.com/life/2002-11-08-aquariums_x.htm

The road to hell is paved with good intentions, but it's the thought that counts.
How about this excerpt:
"...basic maintenance costs run about $100 a visit. Most custom aquariums require at least two visits a month. However, Hauser recently installed an 8,000-gallon, $1 million reef tank that needs three visits a week at an annual cost of $90,000."
And that's in a private home!![]()
Someone once posted on another board that they had seen pics of Michael Jordan's aquariums somewhere and that they were spectacular but I have never been able to find pics of his tanks.

$4000 for a 50 gallon, that's not too far off the mark.
THink about it. Lighting, drilled tank cost, pumps, sump, plumbing, sand, livestock, etc. that's not too far off for a 50 gallon. (aso. if you add in installation fees, mark up, etc.)
At least Michael Jordan has arms long enough to reach the sub-terranian algae growth on the front glass.
