thought i would show you guys my coldwater lobster tank, that i have at my work.
i have done quite abit of work on it, since taking it over last week.
its still pretty boring as there are only lobsters and snails in there now.






the executive chef is from France, so there is homage to him here. as well as the sanil, haha

Very cool, I've worked in kitchens for almost 30 years but never had a tank set up in the kitchen (had this one in the dinning room). Where abouts are you working?

A resort on Van Isle where I was the Chef, we had 3 cold water tanks with almost 14000 gallons total. The main one in the dinning room is 13000 gallons (all water was pumped in from the bay the resort was on) Kept lots of PNW species such as salmon, rock cod, flounder, dungeness crabs, starfish/sun stars, octopi and anemone. The Aquarist worked very closely with the Vancouver Aquarium and the Pacific Research Station in Uclulet.

Nice shots. A few were a little bit out of focus, but all-in-all very nice.
I've got to get a camera that takes a decent macro picture. I envy all of you with your camera skills.

Was just reading your thread with the SPS for sale and you were talking about having to dose so much for your kH and Ca. Curious how much you are having to use and what products?
