    NICE! That is a huge tank! Im guessing your work pays for all of the tank expenses? If you dont mind me asking, where do you work?

    Oh yeah - the company certainly pays for everything.

    I am just the educated purchaser/curator for the tank.

    We also have a guy that comes every two weeks for 100 gallon water changes. No skimmer on the tank. Been up and running for about 18 months now. Soon to replace the MH/CF lighting with Boost MU135 fixtures - FOUR of them to be exact :)

    I work in Fairfield, NJ. Company website: Brian Trematore Plumbing & Heating, Inc. | Home

    We did the New Meadowlands Stadium last year, West Point Military Academy, Liberty Towers, Wegmens Supermarkets - basically large scale commercial plumbing and heating projects. We are not the ones to call for a leaking sink or clogged toilet . . . :)

    You ever decide on what tang to add? :p I think you should do a scopas tang, and a purple tang.

    Just curios, what is the 7th picture from the top?

    Love the tank though!
