One of the best tanks out there. I just purchased a 180 with an outside overflow. Did he do all that plumbing himself? I am amazed at that plumbing work. Thumbs up.

Thomas, could you find out what Seth does on his maintenance for his Kalkwasser reactor? Does he add 1 tsp a day or weekly? I have the same reactor and I have been having difficulty dialing in the reactor on my top off. Thanks

jon cee - 10 years ago

Equipment alone Im guessing $10,000 plus.

Jlassco - 10 years ago

Amazing what 500$ and a dream can build. Just kidding, freaking amazing tank. Congrats

Paul Simpson - 10 years ago

ThomasVisionReef - 11 years ago

LOL, Yo I will be in Miami for MACNA!!! Yeah well no excuses but...lol. Tony and I (and the guy you don't see on camera from Ecoxotic) has just left Fintastic (had just spent 7 hours there that day and 12 hours there the day before). We were beat man. I tried to get all the footage I could then I had to drive back to ATL in the pouring rain right after that :-( But next time I do this when I have more time I will get more detail. Promise!
