Anyone have pictures of a large freestanding aquarium? I'm trying to get some ideals on building a stand for my tank this week.

I made mine from concrete blocks and steel I beams. Then I covered it with tile.

Hi Paul,

How are you?
You tank looks incredible! Amazing!
Is that gigantea getting much bigger or just mine imagination?

Hi Shutiny!
Your right, it's gotten a lot bigger, and that pic is about 6 months old. It's huge! It's my favorite piece though. The clowns are doing great too. Greg from the BRS (Boston Reefer Society) was over last week to take a lot of pics so I should have some nice ones to post soon.
Flounderfish, the sump is in the basement. If you check out my gallery, you can see all the details.

Great! I love to see new pictures of that anemone.
Do you have any other anemone in your tank/system? I am wondering because ever since I added RBTA's, H. magnifica , Crispa, haddoni, and mertensii, mine giganteas have been fading away. In fact, I can not keep any gigantea

Thanks for any info

I have a haddoni and another unkown anemone. I have never been able to keep a magnifica. They always fade away after a few months. I have heard it said that you can't keep gigantea and magnifica together.
