    Take a look at this.. it seems as though this would just be a PITA to take care of.. Just imagine if it were to rain..

    haha thats really cool corals would love the natural light, if you browse he also has a short video and it shows what happens if it rains, he has sliding glass panels that come across the pond so that it doesnt get flooded with fresh water

    You would think algae would be an issue.

    You must have a firewall setting or pop-up blocker stopping it. Try right-clicking and choosing "view on youtube".

    I've wanted to do something like that for a while. But, I live in MI.

    It looks awesome and is a great idea, but I still the maintainance on it would be higher than a normal tank. We had a pond with some gold fish outside and we always had problems with birds coming down and eating the fish, so no more fish.
