The conversion was the fun part. I love the challenge of switching everything around. I had to learn how to make backgrounds, setup substrate to grow aquatic plants, build fake trees and vines, design a defogging system to keep the acrylic viewing panels fog free, etc, etc,etc.

It was a lot of fun!

Very cool. What size (dim.) is the tank?

 

[AsianReef]

It's so cool. But do you have any mosquitos problems since it's in tropical environment?

My little stingray swimming down the channel to the other end of the tank.

its looking great! i'll have to give you a shout when im looking for plants and mosses for mine. i havnt done anything with mine for a while, still looking for a place to move to.

I think we all cried a little when we heard the tank was no more. Glad to see that you are still representing the space well though! Is the stingray the only addition? It will be very cool to see it with the geckos, chameleons, and dart frogs...
