I really really like that aquascaping as well! Not just a pile of rocks in the middle. It is stunning. You have a very nice camera too btw. Are you an engineer? Love the rimless idea as well!

The tank looks so cool in real life. I had the opportunity to see it, the lighting, and plumbing system today. It is amazing.

I got it off a guy in jersey, he bought it and never set it up. It is a custom tank from MiraclesAquariums in canada tho.
