YES!! When can we see this house in person! We'd be happy to load up the Mini Coop and bring a case of Beer and a couple bottles of Moscato!!

I have tons of pictures but it will take time to upload .
The house was built around the house in 07 , I didn't get the tank running until 2 years ago so its fairly new . my last tank was 1500 gallons was in Wadsworth ill . I built everything myself except the concrete . the skimmer in the picture is one of my designs and has a patent out for it .

old system

It looks like he has plumbed in sprayers in the cups. Awesome.

The three clear skimmers you see in the pictures were replaces with the one gray one . its a newer design and does the job of all there of the old ones . the new one has an auto cup wash .

All these pictures are still leaving me speechless... MORE! lol

Just curious, but who designed and built the system? I would think like someone from the Shedd came out and hooked all this up!

 

[pigpen]

I designed and built everything myself . this is what I do for fun .

I seriously would LOVE to see this tank in real life. My jaw is seriously dragging on the floor in awh. This is beyond gorgeous and I'm jealous that you have your own little piece or ocean to swim in!

Welcome to the group!
