your explanation, pics and your references of companies to talk to are EXTREMELY HELPFUL. I plan on doing a similar project for my house within 5 year.. its in the plan! Would be FW tank and about twice this size, but your instructions and tips will be critical to my own success. This will be a great tool.

thanks for sharing.

Great article...great tank! Love to see pics of people SWIMMING in their DIY tanks! What a lot of work, but hats off to you for even attempting something on this scale. Hope your sharks are enjoying their new home. Now if only I had a basement.....

Absolutely amazing in all degrees and terms.
I have to admit, I never though saltwater was worth the extra effort…until now!

I had done some basic research on black tip reef sharks, I always thought they need 2,000+ gallons?
How does feeding time go, expensive or any complications?

You have planned this out and conducted it perfectly, looks better than a professional job! Stick around on MFK.
