I know for me would be Giant colonies of corals and Schools of Reef chromis, Yellow tangs, Anthias and Moorish Idols for starters. I would go scuba diving for weekly maintenance and take lots of Underwater pics !!

My Concern though: HOW DO LIGHT THIS THING AND ACHIEVE A GOOD par READING. . LOL

Definately a large predator tank. I always wanted a shark. Maybe a large moray eel.

So how hard would it be to keep a tank clean if you are diving in it every day?
I think maintenance would be easy with easy access to getting into tank. I think however, the cost of dosing and salt for water changes as a start.

When we were looking at houses years ago, there was one I’ll never forget. It had a giant greenhouse room with glass ceiling in the center of the house. In this greenhouse room was a big swimming pool. It had a Bridge over it so you could cross to the other side of the house. The pool became a stream through the house. All I could think of was how great it would be to drain that pool and turn it into your own coral reef! That glass ceiling let in lots of light obviously and I’d use the greenhouse to grow lots of rainforest plants. What a great house that would have been!
