Incredible!!! Zilla 3!!

[ReefWerkes]

First off, thanks to Kevin Carpenter for his most generous hospitality.

I think most everyone who was there had the same "speechless" feeling as I did when they first saw the tank - incredible.

Pictures to follow....

I think I have something set wrong on my camera, my pics all make the tank look kinda small.

 

[ReefWerkes]

That's how big I felt my tank was after seeing Kevin's!!!

The videos are great! They are a super way to capture the size of Zilla III.

Thanks again to Kevin for sharing this incredible creation!

I had seen the pics and thought I was prepared but until you see it in person and enter its environment you cannot really get the full impact of Z3. I have seen many tanks full of incredible living things but this tank itself is an incredible living thing, thriving, bubbling, and as I understand, sometimes spitting. My hat is off to Kevin (if you fish it out of the sump let me know) for building Z3 and thanks for allowing SEASL to visit.
Also, great pics and videos guys.

Thanks to all

Thanks to all

All of you were so nice and knowledgeable I appreciate you welcoming me. I felt like that was a once-in-a-lifetime experience to see something like that in a home, awesome job Kevin. I think you inspired all of us to rethink and dream a little bit more on our next tank. My wife is worried.
