So much variety , just love how full it looks , but seriously I think your going to have to start trimming back soon

Gorgeous tank! I've always thought cubes were an ideal reef tank. Did you consider trying to design it for a full walk around with center overflow? Not always feasible but definitely awesome if you can pull it off!

Great tank excellent thought in the design process

This tank has the coast to coast over flow, then the sump and all equipment is in the garage i have cut a hole in the wall to pass the pipes through. Give me tons of storage under the tank! lol

Man you got some serious growth going on there.

 

[Stylaster]

yes i cant believe it, its been up and running for 10 months and looks like its been going for a couple years. The german blue digi has grown from a 4" mini colony to over 18" in size in that amount of time

 

[leveldrummer]

Very nice setup for sure!

Great looking tank. You're getting some amazing growth!

I was wondering how the top-down aspect was working for you. Primarily, with the flow creating ripples on the top. Do you just turn off the pumps when you want to admire the view from the top, or do you use a viewing box?

Also, an updated full-tank shot would be appreciated, when you have the time!

Some top down shots from the cell phone when i had the pumps off and full tank shot

crazy that only 2 radions power this tank....good job on the macro shots...

 

[Stylaster]

Thank you, except it has four radions and one kessil for lighting. Macro shots done with the stock 18-55mm lens. I need to get a 100mm someday
