    Sorry, thought I had posted these somewhere earlier... It is very difficult to grasp the scale of these things in pictures, but this is about 8"x12" and about 16" off the main sand bed.

    Keep in mind, that rock is WAY bigger (and heavier, and MUCH sharper, I might add) than a basketball...

    Sorry its been so long, things have been a little crazy around here...

    Here is the first video of the wave box in action. This is with the main pumps cut back and the closed loop off, so the action is far more obvious. It is a much more subtle rocking during the day with everything running, as this tank is turning over about 15x/hr.

    These were taken last month... There is quite a bit of coral in her now, and our fish collection is growing rapidly. Our Achilles is still the king of the castle though...
