At least for the sea life in this aquarium.

I just finish building this 110 gal. tank with a new concept design for my brother. This is a 110 gal. Seahorse Aquarium with a Three Dimensional Background inside the tank. Sea life can interact with the background. All pipes and pumps are hidden behind the design.

WOW! That is one impressive tank. I'm a freshie but this makes me want to start a saltwater tank. I love the stand and the background :)
 
Kewl, what kind of filtration/water movement you have in there? You look pretty well stocked too. How long has the tank been up and cycled? Love the background. Sure is a one of a kind.

Good work
 
very cool design must be fun to watch. Do you worry about the seahorses having to compete for food with the other fish??

Very nice. I have the same question as far as the seahorses.

The seahorses are trained to eat from the shell bowl in the pictures. Food is poured in a tube so that it can go into the shell. The fish do not bother them at all. I will post a link to some videos soon.

That is amazing. I love the set up. Very nice collection of fish. Makes me wish I could upgrade to a larger tank!
 
That is a beautiful set up. How did you train the seahorses to eat from the shell and the fish to stay away from it?

Seahorses are trainable. They were trained in the quarantine tank before they went into the main tank with the tube and shell bowl from when they were small. My brother is now trying to get them to jump threw a ring of fire.:p LOL! Joking
 
Those pictures just made me realize how boring my tank is. =[
Hahaha looks EXPENSIVE. It's so beautiful.
If I had it, I'd stare at it for days at a time.
