Congrats Chris!!!!!

Happy to finally see your tank here! Can't wait to provide you with new additions to grow out into monster colonies!

 

[mflamb]

Absolutely gorgeous. I've enjoyed studying your setup. Do you ever ship frags!?!?

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

Simply beautiful. A breath of fresh air. Congrats, Chris. :thumbsup:

Congrats buddy!!! That is one tank I could lay back in the recliner and watch for hours, so realistic!

 

[Kip]

super nice... love the mature corals... the dedication to minimal stocking for future growth is to be highly commended.

2 big thumbs up!

New philosophy.

New philosophy.

Chris,

Its obvious but let me restate it anyways - your tank ROCKS !!

But, I also wanted to say thank you for introducing a new thought into my own world of reefkeeping. I must admit I never really consider the concept of allowing corals to "grow out", and although I'm not ready to give up all that real estate in my tank today. Someday when I build that "big one" I will definitely leave added room for growing out several massive colonies because I am totally in love with yours. They add a real sense of naturalism to the tank.

Thanks for sharing such a spectacular tank!!!

Happy Reefin'


Viszlat,

Joe
