can you say...perfect??!?!

[Uber]

quite possibbly the best tank i have ever seen!!

[gregoryalln]

wow,that is nice, it look's like it is almost square, has a lot of depth. i saw a guy in oregon that was building a reef store, sadly he went bankrupt before he opened. he wanted everything set up perfect before he sold. it took him 2 years,and he had spen to much, mainly on this reeftank which was 10' long 10' wide, and 4 feet deep. it was and awesome tank with 3,000 lbs of live rock. the tank was over 8,000 gallon's

[Uber]

hehe, sounds like something i might do, i would want to do it as best as i could, especially around here because to be honest we dont have very good lfs around here...damn i would love to open my own business, just a matter of knowing the tirhg tpeople and then doing it i geuss!

but that damned tank man...its sooo beautiful, the colors, the depth, the school of fish, the variety...would love to see it in person, i geuss this guy is japanese, here is a nother picture of one of his tanks i think

[gregoryalln]

idid have that kind of money, but my other hobby was stereo's, and i dropped 16 k into it. then it got rearended and i have to sue the person to get the money back

[watchmangoby]

that deep tank is unreal. looks better than most of the public aquariums. the school of fish and the coral everywhere. its the best ive seen yet.

[TheDogofWar]

[LuvlyCo]

Whos tank is this :?: It kinda makes me feel like im missing something :D :lol:

[Uber]

the guy up above, i dont know him just found this stuff through other people, and figured i would share it with ya, he is Japanese, thats all i know, it was a thread comparing Japanese tanks and American tank setups, and comparing the diffrence, i would have to say that the top pic is unbeliveable, and that third pic i posted, DAMN coul you have anything else in there!! and look at all those damned lights! looks like a stage setup

greg you should go into real business and take me with you lol!

i wanna show these people up damnit!

[Sandworm]

Wow, those are really some nice tank setups. I'm thinking serious cash flow here.. hehe Quite impressive on the inner workings of the tank.. Even looks like a "Kent" ad.. :wink:

[TheDogofWar]

Those are all japanese tanks, one of them is like cpfarms or something. I found quite a bit about it today.

Kent advertisement, thats exactly what I was thinking! :)

You should see the lighting on these things. A huge portion of the color spectrum is being used, everything from 6500-20k I believe. and lots of it, I have a couple pics of the lighting too, I'll post up tomorrow.

[Uber]

heres those pics i think you were talking about dog...your right, everything is being used here lol, incredible.

[TheDogofWar]

yeah thats them.

completely awesome. As if theres not enough $ wrapped up in equipment, then you've got to run it all. :shock:

[jason gilman]

that insain

[Sandworm]

If I'm not mistaken, that tank is the one owned by the CEO of the Bonneville Power Company.. bahahaha He'd have to be to pay that bill... :wink:

[russ_c]

Hey Guys,

That first tank image is breath taking. I did a google image search on the name of the .jpg and I found the website responsible. They have other amazing tanks to match. Check it out!!!

cpfarm.com (http://www.cpfarm.com/fotogarally/g_aqua.html)

cpfarm.com Photo Contest (http://www.cpfarm.com/foto_contest.html)

Amazing, thanks Uber for inspiring me by digging up that picture,

[Uber]

their take on photography and aquascape is no less then artistic, these have to be underwater cameras, very very good underwater cameras lol

[hounddog]

There goes 24 months of my paychecks. That is if Uncle Sam did not take his part. thoes are awsome. He either has someone take care of them or does not work.

[paul p]

i wish i was a jap dammmm

[Madmanny]

so that is where all my fried rice take out goes to!

[Joey88again]

You can use halogens?

[joanadam]

Guess I wont be posting a pic of my IV Bag kalkwasser dosing system :oops:

[lilm327]

greta tank

[dzhuo]

The first tank is the best I have ever seen! We spent so much money on a reef tank, why should we accept anything less? Does anyone know where I can find other beautiful tanks like that? I am trying to gather as many pictures as possible so I got more idea on how to make my tank look better. The cpfram link that was posted is in Japanese so I can read the text, is there a English version of it?

Thanks!

[Naturalsettings]

Hi has anyone checked out www.seavisions.com? I want the one that is the top left :D

Save your money, then. :mrgreen:

It's nice. I like a tank that can be viewed from all sides. There is a tank in the Gatlinburg, TN aquarium (it's in the little kids area, actually) that you can actually climb up and look in from a bubble in the middle. It's almost donut shaped. That would be cool, cool, cool.

[Naturalsettings]

Kung did you see where they had to cut a hole in the roof just to get that aquarium in? Totally unbelievable I guess I'll just have to dream at least that doesn't cost anything :roll:

[ReeferZach]

WOW :shock:

[bfillmore]

For that kind of money, why not just make a little house down in the great barrier reef?

[rememberme]

:cry: Nevermind the corals and equipment - I wish my tank was that clean. Damn you who ever you are!!! (But keep up the good work).

[reefrookie75]

Tanks like those seen in this forum give me something to strive for! Well, at least dream about! Absolutely the best Reef aquariums I've ever seen!

[reeferluver]

Real Nizeeeeeeeeee...just a little complex for me.....

[Naturalsettings]

One of these days we'll have one just like the one's posted if we're lucky :D

[bmb527]

I don't think luck has much to do with it. All it would take is MONEY!...Great big piles of money!
Bill

[Naturalsettings]

Well in my case it would take allot of luck to get that kind of money to set up that type of tank :D

[Bald Eagle]

it wouldnt work in america. we have too many power outtages here. every time the power went out, you would have to reboot the system. and california would sue you for using up all their power :lol:

[joanadam]

Those look just like my tank. :mrgreen: ...Take away the expensive equipment...expensive corals...throw in some unwanted algae growth...throw in some cheaper corals... a dead coral skeleton or two :P $20,000+ later...

[reefrookie75]

What are those orange and red bushy looking corals to the left called?

[joanadam]

Carnation Coral aka cauliflower. One of the hardest soft corals to keep.

[Bald Eagle]

mylfs just gave me 6 small pieces of carnation coral 2 months ago. i have 3 pieces in my 210 and 3 in my 125. so far all 6 are doing good and all are attached to lr. they are growing nicely. wish me luck.

[Bam]

MAN! i just wanna slap u!!! thats awsome! ya some day mine will look like that :?
keep at at!

[Princesa]

Geeeze now i feel really bad after seeing your tank mine looks like crap :oops:

[Nodbugger]

wow,that is nice, it look's like it is almost square, has a lot of depth. i saw a guy in oregon that was building a reef store, sadly he went bankrupt before he opened. he wanted everything set up perfect before he sold. it took him 2 years,and he had spen to much, mainly on this reeftank which was 10' long 10' wide, and 4 feet deep. it was and awesome tank with 3,000 lbs of live rock. the tank was over 8,000 gallon's

If it was the dimensions you gave it would only be about 2,992 American gallons.

[enzo]

all that equipment and for what????? i bet each peace does very little and seeing the quality of some of the reefers tanks on this forum the majority of that seems unessasery. it all looks great and could be achived easily with a big fat bank balance. in my oppinoin its a bit OTT and i wouldnt start thinking your missing things, you just need to compare the budget on theres to yours and youll see theres not much in it for the money. im not saying i wouldnt like that stuff but for me its not gonna happen :shock:

[alptibet]

I can't beleive my eyes... Awwesome, superb, bravo!!!

[mybubbles]

WOW!!! you guys go hardcore on reef tanks!!!!
heheheh

[stony]

That is crazy never seen anu thing like that lucky

[Ludwigia]

Bald Eagle, the shots you posted are, I believe, kenya tree corals. Anyone concur?

[percman]

how many gallons is the tank in the first pic? I just bought a new 90 gal i've only got a few fish tha will be makin the move into the new tank 2 percs 2 bangaiis and a pygmy angel. i've recently been introduced to japanese style aqua scaping and i love it. So i was thinking that along with the fish i have i would add a kole tang (just to keep algea down) and a school of either yellow reef chromis or blue green chromis my question is with the fish that i already have, how large of a school of chromis can i keep?

[Bald Eagle]

more than 4 or 6. thats a good school size. 8)
