Has anyone played around with having a naturally lit tank?

I know the Waikiki Aquarium has one, that's supplemented by MH. I've also seen a few on RC that were sunlit, i believe, and had amazing growth and stability.

i've also heard the major downside to these tanks is that often the frags/cuttings will not thrive in a normally (or traditionally) lit tank.

just kinda tossing out a discussion topic. it's a neat idea, and if i ever move to an area that gets more sun, i might consider it.

also, on that note, does anyone ever think about the noise our equipment produces (powerheads, pumps, overflows) and how that affects the animals?
