I think that's actually one of the best tanks I've ever seen. I remember seeing a different video of it, and it was actually much better looking, but possibly a different tank. I really like the idea of putting it in a green house like that, surrounding it completely with plants. I've ran my tank without mechanical filtration, it didn't do too bad. After a while I turned it back on, I like it better this way.
It's really hard to keep my mouth shut and not reply to your status. But in general maybe we shouldn't have political opinions in there, just a thought.
