Although this is a very old pic (1996?)....I've seen pics and heard Sanjay has some awesome tanks...and of course, the Penn State tank he oversees, is a definite Idol Tank. I will try to look up a picture of that tank. Here is that older pic of Sanjays tank from 96...

Penn State Tank

Oh and here is the small picture of the Penn State Tank...haha And this coincidentally was my graduating class (1999) Senior Class Gift, does this make it my tank at all?? I wish!

Beautiful tanks. Is it just me or is have of the fish thats in the stag?with blue tips in the middle back of the tank missing its tail??

 

[BRISK495]

haha good observation, its actually half his body thats missing!. But, its just the fish turning around real quick and it looks like half its body is 'hidden' behind the front half.

This is a great thread. Some of those tanks are so nice.

The Penn State tank def. has some photoshop work done to it (Look at the the milky haze to the lower right where the prefilter is) Some of the area has doubled corals and some fish are not completely added in. But I think all of that work was done by combining a few pics to make everything appear clear.

Just found a new Idol tank....

Roll221's tank!

My favorite tank is the Penn State Hub tank. The early picture does not do justice to the beauty of this woderful tank.

I second Roll221's tank. Before I met him, I just had some fish in saltwater. Then he took me to his house, and the rest is history.

hehe , i work on the hub tank too, try taking a pic of a 96 x 42 x 30 tank some time and see if you can fit it all in one frame :-D

I feel honored to have my tank displayed in this thread, but I have to say the tank has grown some since I took those pics. Travis thanks for posting the pictures.
