Wow, the cute little girl standing next to it really gives the enormousy (sp?) of the tank. Acrylic, right? Real plants? Filtration - FX5?

Acrylic and no live plants yet thinking about it tho. Filters custom still trying to make the best set up with what's built in. I have another thread that shows the layout of the filter chambers built into the back wall. Right now I have 2 rio 2500 plus pulling water though some filter pads and accross some bio balls. Thanks she was tired and did not want to stand there lol

Big tanks are very costly. I think I remember you got this tank used, right? Wonder what it was ($) brand new, or did you get it new?
