I was scrolling through instagram and I came upon the custom tank of my dreams. L shaped tank with a drop off in what I would call the tall portion of the L. I would say 6-8 feet tall and probably just as wide. Problem is before I could follow the profile Instagram’s refreshed and I seem to have lost it forever. Would anyone know what tank that might have been or whose it was? It was on par with an Andrew Sandler tank but it wasn’t him this I’m sure of.

Any help would be amazing

I understand the shipping can be more than the tank. They have to ship on the stand. That is a serious project. Lighting and flow will be a challenge but look at that beast. What an awesome tank. Headphones and a glass of red in front of that baby for hours. Id love to see a build thread. Good luck!

Are you thinking to go with glass, or acrylic?
Not sure yet… I’m probably 12-18 months out before starting this so I’m in the planning stages. Honestly my biggest concern is moving stuff from my 1000S over and how in the hell do you mount corals in the bottom half lol

Right? You can't just 'kind-of-sort-of' climb inside a specialized tank like that to work. You might have to invent your own custom (extra long) tongs, and maybe look down through a glass coral viewing box (like at an LFS coral farm) with all flow turned off, when gluing your placements. 😬
