Beautiful tank, but there are many superb tanks out there, and only so many magazines. I guess your tank really has to stand out from the rest , be different, to be published in magazine. But you never know, just keep up the great work !!! I never expected mine to be in magazine but it happened, when I least expected. Stay positive :)

HOB. I got a 30g HOB and am going sump with 75g setting up. But looks like a lot of leathers and lps so works like mine but I've been getting a few of sps growing now so they'll b bigger then frags when 75 is running. I'd like 2 see the HOB filters and what he modified or adds 2 em like I squeeze bio balls in 2nd compartment in it and a bag of extra carbon 2 weeks into change on top where water transfers 2 filter from pump. Now I see some montis by highest par probably.

I think it looks great for a few reasons:

Mangroves and rock work are unique, love it
Tank full of large healthy corals, love it
The simplicity of the tank. Reminder that you dont need thousands and thousands of dollars in equipment to grow beautiful healthy corals and fish.

The tank is beautiful. If you get enjoyment, satisfaction, etc from it who really cares if its ever in a magazine. Personally I think it is a great example of a very unique tank.
