it's hard to take pics with no glare, even harder to take them when all the fish are out! (and even still only 1/2 the fish are pictured.) the tan k is 4ft front to back; it's real hard to capture that perspective from a dead-on front angle |
| Quote: |
Intelligent men build machines to do the work for them. |
| Advice: |
if anything, read the advice of the top 10 rated tanks!!! and read as much material as you can - internet, books, word of mouth. and there's no such thing as overkill when it comes to maintaining your water quality! |
| Fish Kept: |
2 yellow tang, 2 purple tang, 6 anthias, 2 percula, 1 neon dottyback, 1 red coris wrasse
