Peninsula Tank?

[alkamar]

Are there are any members with peninsula tanks? I have a prime place for one, but I'm not sure if I would like one or not. Maybe if I looked one over in person later to help decide. On one hand, it is nice to have a view of the back and front from two different rooms. On the other hand, you will see objects in the room while viewing the tank.

If I build a peninsula reef in the future, it will likely be a 180G that is 72 x 24 x 25. I am a person that likes to research before making a large plunge, so this project will not start anytime soon. I want to plan everything out and be comfortable with my final decision so I have few regrets later. I appreciate any input on this.

AFter The February meeting at the Pink Palace, we went to Robert Stephensons home and viewed his two tanks one of which is a large peninsula tank that is divided into two sections.
One section for seahorses and one mixed reef section.

You and your family stayed at the Pink palace after the movie so you missed that piece. Here are the threads to the photos of that meeting.

In my next life, I'm gonna build a house around a large 240-gallon (min.) Square tank (veiwable from all four sides) with central supply lines (from above) and center Drain lines (below), tied to the house's main vent stack.

If we're going to do all this work, I wanna "Sea" it!

That is a nice tank. Maybe I'll get another chance to see it.
