The Lookdown is no longer in the tank. I'm not sure what happened, but when I found it the shark was on it. It had been eating and didn't show any signs of disease. Now more fish in that tank, shark & rays only.

I'm suprised you haven't built a shark pond yet because obvisouly you got too much space, time, and money on your hands.
Sweet tanks!
I know, they are located in my office. I went from a 6' desk to a 4' table. Hard to get any work done watching the tanks.....NO more tanks, I'd have to start putting them in the bathrooms if I added any more.

I went back and reread this thread and noticed that I had made a change since my last posts. The shark and rays are giant waste machines, and I was having troubles keeping the water in check. I thought that part of the problem may be with the skimmer that I had originally put on the skimmer so I decided to replace it with one from Deltec. What a difference a skimmer can make.. The water is more in check and I am having to do fewer water changes in the tank. It's made all of the difference in the world, well worth the investment.

No new fish in the tank. I don't plan on adding any since the shark and rays are getting big and aggressive. They are eating & waste machines all rolled into one. I will get some new pictures posted, but until then, check out the live web cam on the tank.

With the recent addition of the 2 specimen tanks in my office, I had to change my desk size from 6 foot to 4 foot. I was on the phone yesterday in my office and they asked if I was talking to them from the shower....
You asked for it...
1 470 Reef
1 210 Reef
2 200 Specimen
1 150 FOWLR
1 12 Nano
1 55 quarantine
1 80 propagation tank
Some where around 1300 gallons, not counting 350 gallons in sumps/refugiums for the various tanks.
I think that I am going to start charging a small admission from the neighbors who stop over to look at the tanks to help support my addiction.
Thank god I haven't read a thread about jellyfish as I think that they are really neat, but need their own tank.....
I love you. rofl
If only my significant other shared my addiction! That is amazing the tanks you have !
Very nice pics!

I must have changed my mind after I posted that reply cause I see the 600 gallon tank isn't in the list. Maybe a significant other would solve my addiction with this hobby...........
