It won't self clean very well and you'll have solids sitting on the bottom in what are known as "dead zones." You can do it but you will be limiting your carrying capacity by not removing waste efficiently.


Couldn't you block off the corners somehow and help improve that situation?


Yes but why not just get a circular tank and not have to make alterations?

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
