Do I detect a visit to, Hawaiian Botanicals? I love that mini Brom! Great work!

A 240g tank would make perhaps the mostest awesomest setup yet. That would be something to see!

mark, I did see this tank while looking for inspiration. It looks awesome & clean with a sump.

Haloreef, yep Hawaiian Botanicals it was! They have some awesome little carnies in right now.

Leah, haha, really- this wasn't very much work! I'd say it took maybe 5 hours all together over the days. A quick mist twice a day (I'd love to get a fogger in there) and top up the water in the pool every few days. Thats it! And I would definitely consider it on the same coolness/interest level as a reef tank.

Dianna, the tank looks great! It has given me a much needed kick in the a$$. I have a 125 gal reef ready tank and a 340 gal reef ready tank that are just sitting in my basement calling to me. I have been meaninng to turn one into a planted Dart frog display to go beside my reef tank. I love the petrified wood where did you find it?

Nice, I can only imagine the possibilities with a large tank! I got some of the petrified wood at "Island Tropical Pets" formerly Big Al's in Burnaby, and some at King Ed's. I love rocks & fossils so its neat for me to be able to use it in my aquascape/landscape.

That is soooo nice.
Hmmmm. I do have a small tank (24lx12wx20h). I'd rather not have to drill this tank. Would it still be doable?
Any other really good links?

Everytime I see your tank volume I think it's a radio station frequency.
