Austin Tank Tour

Last Saturday, I spent the day traveling through Austin visiting some beautiful reef tanks. I took 775 pictures, and will have to go through them and post the best of the best. Here are a few samples, one from each reef keeper.

Almost every tank had a Tunze Wavebox or two, and most used filter socks. Most tanks used Reeflux 12,000K MH bulbs.

Joseph Le (unknown)


Andrew (Starfire)


Gabriel (Gkarshens)


Dallis & (GMFett)


Mike (dudester)


Brian (greenmako)


John (thedude)


Aaron (bmwaaron)

Awesome shots Marc! It was great to have you in town and I hope you make the trip again soon.


Are you saying I just need to add a wavebox to my current filter sock and my tank will look like the pics above?

Rich, it sure seems like the Wavebox is the key to pretty tanks based on the ones I visited. I just wish they were invisible.

Somehow I don't think my little 70g would hold much water with the wavebox pumping it up and out.


Marc posted a lot more pics on the ARC site if you have a chance to swing by. Thanks Marc!!!

I want to get all the pictures edited, but my work has really eaten up my time for the past couple of days. I'll get more done so everyone can see what they missed. Next tank will be Gkarshen's.
