Very cool, tagging along.

Awesome I'm loving the aquascape not filled to the brim with rocks like that

That looks super awesome Elder!! Each section looks like a tank on their own, but the whole length is epic.
I also love the open sand bed.

Where'd you get the black trim ?

Duckhams 06-11-2015 06:28 PM

Thats a really unique tank! You might need to add another AFS or two to manage/balance the feedings and to keep aggression down long term. Im looking forward to seeing more piccys!

I manufactured the trim from a product called Sintra it is expanded PVC that comes in a flat sheet so I can CNC it. It also can be welded same as acrylic to give you permanent bonds.

And thanks I wanted a open tank look never liked having 10000 pounds of rock in a tank.

Thank you all for the the kind words I will be posting more pic's this weekend.
