I’ve been trying to solo this project and got one friend who can help for a few hours a week. It’s tough and it’s taking a long time. Just building the 720’ of geothermal pipes has taken a week of near continuous pvc gluing.  The concrete and rebar stages are going to be rough too. :)   if you’d...

I'm not sure why my last post seems to have broken, but here it is again.  I'm building a pool and then converting it to a reef. It's a small pool but a big reef. It's 10' x 20' x 5.5' deep with the top 2.5' actually above ground with glass. If anyone is interested in helping, please let me...

It's 96" x 32" (front to back) x 27" deep. 3/4" eurobraced open top.http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t496/karimwassef/91D23C6F-9ED7-4627-90DC-4AF48486914B_zpspzkxcvsp.jpghttp://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t496/karimwassef/C46293DF-2413-43E6-8BA2-0E7BF226121B_zpsq1kbpp3e.jpgvery open...

Here's the left side wall (~2' x 2')http://i1062.photobucket.com/albums/t496/karimwassef/19C2527F-0864-4467-B91C-14B54ABBBF8F_zpsn2pbl7je.jpgAttached to it is this large mushroom and button polyp...

The wall has other corals (ricordea, green zoa, orange monti digitata, stylophora), sponges and featherdusters, but it's dominated by pulsing Xenia. If you want to keep the other corals, I recommend fragging the SPS off to other rock.It's $100 OBO since I'm tearing down the...

Well, actually the whole house is for sale :D including the built-in reef.http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/5218-Lake-Terrace-Ct_Garland_TX_75043_M79020-44185#photo0But in case the buyers aren't interested in the tank and I have to take it down, it's up for sale separately too...

I have a couple of large mushroom coral rocks that inflate to 18" x 12" each. If you have a large tank that you're starting out and you're a mushroom fan, these are $100 a piece.I also have SPS growing out of the tank and needs to be fragged or sold. Some colonies are very large (12" or more in...

I'm still in the planning stage, so this may be a 2018 build - most likely in Frisco.the display portion is 8' x 8' x 3' with an additional hidden section for circulation plumbing.I can get the glass, but I have never assembled a glass tank on this scale before. Anyone know of a reputable...

Hey everyone. I've been building this beast for 18 months now (from a glimmer in my eye) so it's about time to publish some. I'm in Garland by the way. This is an in-wall 34" deep x 27" high x 96" wide starphire glass tank with the body in my garage and the front face in the house. It's on a...
