I just dismantled my tank, and I caught the reefing bug again a little sooner than expected because of your thread! :lol: Also, I love that the volcano creates almost tide pools in the rocks. I wish I was miniature and could live there. :happy:

Me too! Though, that would mean there would be massive crabs of enormous proportion, and that would be a bit freaky.

Giant Enemy Crabs attack their weak-points for massive damage

 

That was hilarious!

 

Giant crab, enemy crab, giant crab, enemy crab

Attack its weak point for massive damage, massive crab, massive damage, massive crab.

 

Awesome.

Pachygrapsus crassipes. California shore crabs. They are awesome. I was expecting a very aggressive and non reef safe crab. I was wrong. No massive damage. :)

i took two days to look over this thread and am really amazed! it really helps with motivation to doing something creative (not in the same way of course :) ). i love the coloring from your choice of fish and corals

 

definitely worthy of all the praise the tank has gotten (all 20 pages of it lol)

It is the April issue. The photographs and etc., were done a couple weeks ago but I didn't post until I was certain it was gonna make the big time. I was waiting for something solid and the cover was a "solid" indication to me! It started on sale on the 18th or so....

How awesome, congratulations! Did you get any free copies from the mag? If I were you I'd keep one in mint condition and another for your coffee table . . . B)

I asked for 4 for those reasons specifically, and 2 more for backups!

Wow. That is simply an amazing tank. So unique and beautiful.

I spent the better part of the morning reading the whole thread. Loved seeing the great progression from start til now.

 

Every part of the tank is great: the crabs, clowns and nem, tangs, volcano, coral selection, etc. Truly deserves all this thread's praise and more!

Congrats on the magazine feature too!
