    Huge aquariums granted, but small layouts. They lack severely the depth and perspective expression that such a massive layout should have simply by shear size.

    I'v heard someone saying - When one have nothing to say talks a lot.
    Now I say - When one have nothing new to show, makes huge aquariums.

    The frontier of excellence and creativity has been reached. Now it's time for big size demo and show off.

    Well having done some similar sized tanks, the art part and simple engineering and building it become a large issue.
    Still, making a large tank does not preclude us from not trying to impact a sense of depth.

    These aquariums are large and the impact is awesome because people walk by it and are several feet away from the tanks, they feel a sense a depth if they move closer and stay still for a few minutes.
    It's hard to express unless you are there and can see the tanks.


    I think they should have cut the bottom of the stones flush/flat. Then glued those or bolted them to flat mounting plate. This way they'd not move.....ever.
