Thanks for the link, that's my dream job.

Does anyone know why that guy got banned from Reef Central? Just wondering because there is a lot of immature stuff I have seen on that board so I rarely go there any more.

You could probably keep it under 1 mil I'd bet?


+ I agree with the size comments everyone has made.
After a certain point... the tank just gets too large really for it to be 'your tank' and your pets. Its like owning 365 pairs of shoes instead of 5. You'll never get to wear each pair every day or be able to enjoy them all, like you will with just the 5.

Pretty impressive.

I don't think that just anyone would do this, unless of couse they loved coral reefs, or am I wrong? I think that he must really enjoy reef environments, so much that he's willing to build his home around one. I mean, he must have thought about what this setup would do to the re-sale of his home if he ever decided to sell it. Of course, the person who who could afford to buy that home should be able to afford to renovate it too I guess.

If I could do it, I would.

I'm pretty sure both of my daughters would argue about that, if they could afford 365 pairs of shoes they would enjoy every one of them
