I wonder if it's a joke? It looks like it was taken at a public aquarium. I don't think anyone could keep a tank that pristine at home (unless they didn't have a life).

Steve, the tank's owner, lives here in the Portland area. He invited me over the weekend before Christmas to see his tank but I just didn't have a spare moment

I think Dennis and Frank went to see it though. Guys?

Its real I talked alot to the guy when he built it. It s a beauty. But any of us could have the same tank in our Living room. As long as you had 25000.. to drop.

Yep it's a beaut......mega bucks though....

The LFS I used to work at had a 600. Not as colourful as that one, but gorgeous in its own right. I spent many hours gazing into it..

It was a MONEY PIT. The boss was always putting the nicest new specimens into it. Rarely would he sell anything out of it.

I personally could never justify spending THAT much on a tank, but kudos to those who do, and who share

Nope. Definitely not a joke. Check out his "Behind The Scenes" pic. What a monster. And this TOO can be yours for about $200 a month and a $20K+ startup fee.
