Saw that one. I was wondering if there was any bigger ones. You could pretty much swim in that one though.

I have not been but the local club tours it each year. Go to seasl.org for info. You can also search reefcentral for "Zilla" and you will find a large thread about this tank.

That tank was absolutely amazing, the work that must have gone through to roll that piece of glass in the curve shape.. ugh... Just wish he went more into how he got the flow around that tank, that's the one thing (well one of many) that have kept me away from going really large. Lighting, no problem add a few 20amp breakers and hang more lights, skimming? Hell build a bigger skimmer. Water changes... well ok those would be a major P.I.T.A. unless you had access to cheap filtered NSW like from an aquarium or something, but water flow? Even with something like tunze streams there's only so much you can do without having "dead" spots from having 5000+gph flow blasting an area.
