photoshopped or not?

i saw this article while searching the interweb....lol.. but couldnt help to think that this was totally photoshopped. it says its six gallons? and it has a hippo tang in it. just thought id show this sweet little tank to you guys.

The Remarkable Pico Reef of Marcello

 

Awesome set up - it looks real to me. All coral colonies appear to be of real size and fish are not full grown.

 

I agree with Seano, looks real

 

There are a few saltwater fish that stay very small - some less than 1" in length - like those Eviota gobies.

I came across this once and I believe it may be a really well photoshopped photo. If you compare the first two pictures, both at slightly different angles, the fishes are all in the exact same position and spot. But it is a great looking tank, fake or not.

 

Real.

 

I have read about this before... this tank is real

 

i seay real poor hippo

 

I'm sure they took him out when he got too big.

 

Hrm, it looks like the colors were probably messed with. I can't imagine getting a perfect picture in every spectrum like this one, both inside and outside of the tank. It may look fairly similar in real life, but the photos were doctored.

In fact, you can go into the properties screen of the photo if you save it to your computer, and it says "Photoshop 7.0".

EDIT: If you look at the one of the goby, there's no "Photoshop 7.0" label on it, so they're definitely not just resized via Photoshop.
