At first this tank didn't look that big because the corals are so big, then I saw the couch across from it....

Yalcin is building a 20,000 gallon system right now! There is a 3,500 gallon in Utah that is pretty awesome.

600 gallon Dt at 3.5 feet off the ground, 1150 gallons total water volume. Beautiful reef with a clam that is about 11 inches across. I don't have pics in my cell, but I'll try to put some up when I get home.

+1 for Bill Wann's 20,000 gallon Reef.... plus I hear he is working on plans for a M-U-C-H L-A-R-G-E-R one now.

Cheers, Todd

Oh man!

ReeferMan420 · Feb 6, 2014

I guess with a tank that big, he can afford the electricity costs! Holy cow!

I've seen his tank thread on RC very nice setup guys pockets are deep to say the least. Another big tank is mrwilsons tank on rc I believe he is located in Canada. As for the US id say Texas has some pretty big setups not sure on the guys name but once again rc had there threads. I sure wish my pockets allowed me to build a mega build like the one above I think its everyreefers dream lol

chings blows bills out of the water IMO. So visually stunning, while the 20k gal is impressive.. the tank really doesnt excite me at all

Its still under construction but how about my 580 gallon

dryad001 · Feb 6, 2014

Ive personally been to Bill Wann house. Here some pics i took

Last i heard is hes building an octagonal 60k gallon system

cdness · Feb 6, 2014

Well personally viewed would be a 600 gallon full reef... However that has since been taken down and being replaced with an addition to the house and a 10,000 gallon tank put in its place

Construction was still in the foundation stage last time I was over there, but it will be amazing!.

I bet that is the largest in the midwest, especially this far north.

Tuna_bullet's.

I forget how big it is, though!

My closest lfs has a big tank in it that I believe is the owner's, but it's a FOWLR, and I honestly don't know how big it is. It does have a huge unicorn tang in it, though...technically rather small for that fish, but it would be difficult to find a tank that could take him!! Seems happy enough, though, and all occupants are healthy.
