dear god, think of what you could do with THAT! have a river sytem running down the cross part and have the arm set up as a slower back water system.

oh for the money for that.

oh for the space to put it in.

That thing is incredible, but you'd need a totally enormous room to set it off properly. Now this one would make an awesome Clown tank:

I actually considered it, but where would you put the sump? He says the cabnet below can't be hollowed out for a sump because of how it's holding the tank up.

Better make sure you never move house if you buy that baby! lol!!
too many lovely fishies, not enough room for more tanks - fishkeeping nightmare :P

That mega-tank is incredible. It must have cost an insane amount of money.

I love rays. I think they are so cool, but you need such a big tank.

That mega-tank is sure going to be awesome when done. "with sand, fish etc."

I loved the back-ground they did on it. and when they add the rest of the wood its really going to look natrail....

But you got to go swimming to clean the glass.. Not sure I want to do that with rays..
