Beat me to it Nat, I don't think it will fit on your balcony, but it might fit in the lounge room and the growbed on the balcony. You could do away with the aquariums that way lol!

8000 liters full would weigh about 8 tonne

Well, if you have 500 fish at 500 grams each the you have 250 kgs of fish - not an insignificant amount.

I wonder why you dont see more kids pools used as fish tanks.....you can get them at really good prices even new.

I suppose the cheaper ones may deteriorate sooner than a poly tank.

Are they safe? Could they leech toxins into the water?

You can see the deterioration in the liner. I reckon it probably leaks and you have to replace that.

Pretty lousy system pictured gorotsuki...

Should be able to get at least another 2-4 "fish" in there... based on the "1 fish per 10L" principle.... :mrgreen:
