I've had the pleasure of being a hobbyist and professional aquarist, but wasn't happy working for someone else so I cofounded Atlantis Marine World Aquarium where I designed and built this 20,000 gallon reef tank, so even though its this big and at a public aquarium, its still my own reef tank

I spend enough time here to call it my second home, and my wife works here too, as well as my kids during the summer

Thats amazing.

Its cool that you get to have ---most probably -- the biggest tank of any hobbiest on rc--and most in the world. and not be burdened with the bill.

Thats awsome.

You are legendary in my mind. No offense but I am thinking of something like a 450 gallon tank.

Calling all REGULAR large tank owners !

Last thing about the Atlantis tank, we need to get the big tank/ tangs pics back in here.
I'd be happy to continue an Atlantis thread if interested in a new thread. I never get tired of talking about the tank.
Did someone say protein skimmer? (4' diameter)

and action........pictures please ! I can post pics of my 58 but that wouldn't even cover JustJoe's daily evaporation. I am sure it wouldn't even be close. In fact I would be surprised if his weely skimmate approaches 58 gallons.

LMK when you're in the area, we're about 1.5 hrs from Brooklyn, you could take the Orient Ferry back over to make the trip easier.

The skimmate line goes directly to a drain, so not sure how much/ day is being removed. When cleaning out the neck and riser one time, I did remove over 4 pounds of muck.
The picture below was from a day when I didn't have it adjusted properly and had a bit of an overflow...




Look closely and you'll see my footprints in the foam as I ran around the corner to adjust a valve... I just had to take a picture of it!

Nice. I also have a borther-in-law in Sag Harbor so I will make it done at some point. Can't say when. I hate to leave Maine in the summer months because it is so nice.
