the member who posted it over on the other site is actually a very respected person in the region. He has helped many out with his generousity and knowledge in both the fresh water and salt water world. i believe this is not even his system, its a buddies of his who is looking to sell.

Guess its true what they say "The truth hurts" he was just being honest not hurtful.

Anyone can see for themselves that its a sub par tank set up and IMO not worth that price tag, but again to each their own.

Edit: I will also add that initially I didn't realize this was an ad in the buy/sell section and originally thought it was an advertising link to a company/brand that called themselves "living colour" tanks.

Well living color is a terribly expensive custom aquarium builders (those fish king guys!). I won't complain about the price tag since I am pretty sure that tang cost a fortune (wouldn't be surprised if it was $18k). In the case of this tank, its not about the quality but more like the "brand name".

Good luck with the sell but you will get some severe bashing over here since I highly doubt whether there will be any such hobbyist to buy such tank. This company generally makes "show tank" and not hobby grade (you know what I mean :P).

P.S. please don't bash the OP. Bash living colors for making such tank and charging blood!

it was a show tank at some very expensive airport store realestate,.. that is why it is so narrow. Also, the fake corals are delibrately white for branding purpose... I assume whatever fishes they had, they would really pop in white background. As for reasons why bioballs, UV, etc. you can always ask the folks at http://www.livingcolor.com and share your gripes.
