    Nice

    Pics of the maintenance room, from a far would be nice.

    Over all great tanks!

    I don't think i would have that many fish in the 600gal system but I'm more into coral.

    Do you have kids+friends that help like it was a job? "it would be nice"

    At this point i would look into a underwater r/c cam "remote control camera"
    And also look into a auto dose system that you could manage anywhere the web is. "just me"

    Thanks for sharing,
    Mike

    Thank you!

    I do have a lot of fish in the 600 and it has made it difficult to have a lot of the corals I had originally planned for the tank. But when it comes down to it, I would take the fish over all of the corals.

    I guess if I only had one tank, I would have gone with a camera that had more options, but I wanted to view as many as possible so I kept the costs down.

    With the exception on my 470 gallon tank pictured here, all of my other tanks have all of the pumps, sump/refugium, mechanical, chemical, and cooling under each tank. The 470 was going to be my last tank, (so I thought at the time), so it was plumbed into the basement so here is a picture of that system.
