How on earth did I miss this thread? And I thought the builds on reefcentral was outrageous, this is just pure insanity.

This display is much much better than Shedd Aquarium Caribbean Reef display. The only thing you're missing is the green sea turtle.

You're staff.. are you hiring? I can quit my current job.... i am just asking for room and board with a bowl of rice a day.

Wow! Nice! Can I have you “starter” tank?
 
An odd question for you....have you noticed any reaction from the fish to the music? Any specific type or genre that gets any reaction? It would be interesting to see what happens if you play the same song at feed time every day if eventually they would equate one with the other.

they recognize music via vibrations and we feed during many but not all music so i think they start looking up more

Love the videos. Is there a plan to add a few Gigantea or Magnifica Nems in the display? Also, while watching the videos, there doesn’t seem to be any aggression and fish living in harmony…is that accurate? If so, what do you attribute it to(size of display, number of fish, etc.)? Enjoying seeing corals added.

@Hedgedrew Andrew, I love seeing the amazing changes you are able to add to this fabulous tank!
We're "friends" on FB and your Happy Friday videos are the often the highlight of my week!!
I've told you before, and I'll say it again... if your mermaid ever leaves, let me know! I'll take the job for free!! :D
The coral colonies you've added are INCREDIBLE!
