A Beautiful German Aquarium (pics)

This is every mans dream! This is what you call good planning. This was from Stephan under the Royal Exclusiv german website. I love the back door access.

I'm amazed at the size of the Bubble King skimmer in relation to the tiny Schuran calcium reactor on the back wall.

What makes the Bubble King such a good skimmer?

from what the people who bought them say they are much more effincient then the normal "good ones" (H&S, Grotech, ATI, Schuran,..), make less noise, take less electricity,...
An other important point is the quality of what they are built of.
Parts are build with CNC-machines,...

But still ridiculous expensive

AMAZING!!!!!

That setup is beyond anything I've even dreamed about.

I love the aquascaping. Especially the large pillar of corals in the middle of the tank.

I'm also intrigued by his efficient use of space, especially the compartments under the tank.

BTW, where is the sump? Also, what type of panels are those that line the walls inside the fish room?

Thats what I said! Every post is a different tank just in case you couldnt make that out. There are ton more pics on the website that Stephan gave us:

I believe that those bars your talking about is to hold things up in place. Could be foam.. or rocks. If you put everything on a flat surface, it will fall one day.

Man those tanks are no joke. Why are all the construction shots crystal but the tank shot looks like it is from a webcam. You can see where their pride is. FYI, RK2 and other commercial skimmer manufacturers make much larger and more expensive skimmers

Anyone know what the grey is they are spraying on? Looks like stucco? How would you ever get that tank out if it was stucco, or some kinda crete?

The is another picture were they are spaying on the back of the tank!

those are pretty sweet, i like how everything is hidden too, it looks very natural, i dont like how they use that concrete stuff as a substrate, but the rest looks great.

very good planning.
