Very impressive!
I wonder how long the planning stage was?
I also wonder if he/she did it themself, or hired the job out?

Wouldn't you get a rather distorted view? I don't like bowfronts for that reason.

Agreed.

slick looking setup,but somehow reminds me of those corporate setups with plastic corals and fish attached to glass bubbles so they float. Boring.

I'm not a big fan of the rounded tanks.. Hard on the eyes imo.

I'm not either. However, I am much more concerned about the Yellow Tang. Why does everyone who sets up a reef always include the obligatory Yellow Tang, and never consider the swimming room the poor thing needs.

Just out of my own curiosity, what is the minimum sized tank that this particular tang should be in?

TIA

I think the minimum length of tank is 4ft but after seeing the one I had swim I think 6ft would be better.
