His goal was to create a tank that resembled nature as closely as possible.
I think he did. Check out some of the pics.

And I thought this was interesting....
When necessary, the sand bed is replaced with fresh calcium carbonate. I like the sand bed to look white, not green. I've also observed that the corals' colors develop better when the sand bed, together with the detritus in it, is removed every few weeks. It is quite a task, but the result is rewarding, in my opinion.
.....this is something I would do:lol:....really I would. I'm still taking out my CC one cup at a time, so I already have already developed the habit :)

Stunning. It's difficult to enjoy how gorgeous the tank is without my mind doing the math around setup and maintenance costs. In this case I just have to enjoy the impossible.

Wow, that is cool... Makes ya think about a bigger tank you your own...Another thought is,, How does he get all the corals where he wants? He has to go for a swim to get them in place. Really cool.
