well i guess i am crazy then, and the only person out of hundreds that was inflicted with this ridiculous thought about the neighborhood.
I will say no more about it. I do not want to detract from the thread as i have allready done so, so please accept my apology for doing that.
Everyone please get over it, and forget or delete my comments if they just dont need to be in the thread. I thought it was a valid question, but the mob disagrees.
Please carry on.

I agree with NM1975. I thought it was a "slum" neighborhood, but I didn't dare ask because I thought I was clearly missing something. Everyone here has to be less sensitive to word choice. I think it was a bit harsh, but it was direct. The interior looks amazing, but the exterior looks like a slums, NM1975 and I can't help but make that connection. I applaud him for asking because I didn't dare ask.
Moreover, if that's a nice neighborhood in Bangkok, I cannot imagine what a Bangkok slum looks like.
Lastly, it's not ignorant. He asked for enlightenment. You people got all focused on the issue of ignorance when in fact he did make that clear in his comment. As far as NM1975 and I can recall, Thailand was a 3rd world country, and is now a developing country.

Ching, how long before you add the rock structures you have created? Also, pardon me if I have missed the answer somewhere in the thread, but what kind of bottom are you planning? Deep sand? Shallow sand? Bare bottom?

I have to admit - i am jealous.
i think anyone with a passion for the hobby would be a bit jealous and awestruck. Im not jealous about the huge demand this would drain from your time and finances, but i guess if you go big you gotta have the "you only live once" mentality. I mean, can you even imagine doing a waterchange on this, or cleaning the glass? Can you imagine just buying the salt for this tank. ?? mind boggling
this is like a museum or city aquarium quality tank, in someones teeny tiny house!
You are building the great pyramid of Giza. You are making the great wall of china. You are painting the mona lisa - right there in your living room for the world to see.
Naturally, lust and jealousy will follow.
do please continue.

That's why "ballers" do what they want and "haters" do what they can.
Absolutely amazing Ching!

On the other hand this last situation only reflects how International this forum is and everybod should do it's best to try to understand everybody else reality.
Every one of us have different challenges and limitations in order to carry our beloved hobby, we have to adapt to our own countries problems and advantages to carry on
and that is the bigget lesson this thread.

LOL-I'm not jealous. I enjoy looking at these aquariums, but I have no interest in actually doing something like this.
Thailand is not OECD, if you want to get technical. Calm down people. We get it now, it's not a slum.
But great tank. I apologize for the mess I have caused here XD

That is what passion is all about guys.
I think you may not have visited asia. Thailand is a amazing place. Millions of tourists visited there annually. You can call it a 'slum' but its a town that they enjoy living in. Even the rich do not necessary want to shift to unknown places as they have been brought up the way it is. They may got used to it and perhaps that is the reason they make their big bucks from this very so-called 'slum' they live in.
Please appreciate this thread rather not to drift into unnecessary debate.
Although its a question that lingered you, but it should put in a tagful manner.
