Congrats Ace, tank looks very very healthy. How's the spotted golby doing? I had gave it to Alton and I think he gave that fat boy to you. I'm sure he is doing great in that big beautiful tank.

There are many awesome sw tanks out there but there are a few that set a standard for others to follow. This is one of those tanks. Congrats Ace.

Very nice tank Ace! Did I read right, tap water?

[hobogato]

thanks for the compliments

no, i am not using an ro/di. i use a single carbon block chamber to de-chlorinate the tap water before i use it for the tank.

Congrats Ace! Beautiful tank for sure. My jaw dropped when I saw it in person.

The pics dont do this tank justice does it . . . Having the honor of seeing this tank in person with the sun lighting the tank and growing coral is inspiring and is one of a kind.

[Scutterborn]

I don't have have the words to express my affinity for this tank. I took a feeling from looking at this tank an tried to model the idea when putting my tank together. I can only hope to evoke the same feeling in my own home. Ace has truly outdone himself. Congrats again Ace!!

[clamgal]
