Your tank looks awesome. Love the vortex idea.

Any chance of getting some pics at a higher resolution?

Last night I went to put my fresh water tank in the stand, although I left exactly the right amount of room for the tank I forgot to leave enough room to get the it in so I might have to pull the skin off to get it in now,...grrr..lesson learned

I've also ordered a 200w pacific sun python for the lighting and am seriously considering starting with the Prodibio from the ground up.
