I'm not sure I would build a $500,000 aquarium if I were rich. I could think of other ways to spend my money. Like maybe buying a private tropical island and just going diving every day. Cool setup tho, but ya, the maintenance bill on that must be killer.

This is one of the largest privately owned reef tanks in Canada Peter has a full time 3 man crew that maintains his tank for him

No comparison really to a 20,000 gallon tank but visually stunning

So,... where can you get a private tropical island, and where you don't have to employ armed security guards, for 500K?

Hmmm, looks very nice indeed... Surprised they would be that cheap, but my concern still would be about security...

Exactly... If you have to put on dive equipment to clean glass, you might as well just put on dive equipment and dive on a real reef in the ocean and clean nothing.

The dude with the bad hair cut was banned form ReefCentral long ago for being a douche bag. No friends but a big tank.
