Pictures please!!! That is awesome although I feel sharks should be in the ocean, but most fish should be as well. I wish I had that kind of money to do a build like that. Mine pretty much broke the bank, but it is winter so I don't do anything else.

The two sides are reefs with metal halide lighting and the middle is a shark/predator tank with some MH lights on the edges that fade a bit to PC's. So you get the look of two reefs with open sand between for sharks and rays. Very little to no LR in the middle tank. He is using a 300G sump and 300G refugium too. He is going to aquascape it with two drop offs in the 180's. The shark tank will hopefully be kind of dim and deep water looking.

There should be a build thread on RC soon. He lives in Florida.

The wall does have 2" between each tank though, so they are not butted right up against each other but the end result should look like one big tank. I mean you will most likely be able to tell its three but thats fine.

I will look for my drawings and designs later.
