There has to be an award or something for that haha! Also I'm sorry Shawn for the wrasse jacked thread.

Have you guys taken video of the tank?

wow... how much for the system? and livestock?

Don't forget, animal planet/discovery channel reality series called "Tanked" starts on Aug 19th... they have builds like this I suppose.

Here are some older pics showing details and development...

This is the back-siphon stop cheque valve.



This is what the mangroves looked like originally. We were tight for space and gained a lot of real estate. Once they grow in, it will be a green wall.



Here's the size difference between the original pump and the new DC pump.



This is what it looks like under the tank. I was trapped under there for a week sniffing fumes and crawling on my knees.



Here is the tank with eggcrate on the bottom to make sure the rock doesn't collapse (rock was bonded together with Epo Putty). The internal plumbing was covered with marine concrete so they blend in with the live rock.











These pipes were particularly conspicuous so I have been attaching soft corals that will hopefully hide them one day.

I've been following on RC and have to say this is one of the greatest tanks ever. The planning and execution is beyond superb.

All I have to say is I'm in TO quite often how much is admission
