I would hopefully sell is by 2'. As long as it is well fed they can go with african haps. I will have to take out the small peacocks. The one I am maybe getting is 3-4" so I can at least enjoy it a couple of years. By then I might make it a pond or something else. Just something I always wanted, and if it goes bad I know some people that would be happy to take it off my hands. I saw one in the african tank at the memphis zoo. It was about 2' and looked mean as crap.

Are you sure you have thought this through. Just heating the tank and having enough warm water to do a weekly water change is probably going to cost you $500 per month. I would guess that with food and all of the other expenses it would cost 800-1000 minimum per month to run depending upon your stock, maybe more.
