Tyler Wells has been keeping unique reef tanks for years. He’s had typical mixed reefs in the past, but lately, he’s taken a deep dive into unique habitats we don’t regularly see in the hobby. Most notably, his “Hurricane Recovery” tank – meant to loosely show what happens when a hurricane hits the coast and rearranges the aquascape. This tank also features another material you don’t often see in the reef aquarium: driftwood.

When Tyler won a 9-gallon bowl last year, he knew it would be the perfect upgrade for his Purple Reef Lobster, Galileo. The scape in this bowl is breathtaking. Tyler was inspired while snorkeling on a recent vacation to St. Thomas. He wanted to mimic the rock valleys he saw in the shallow waters.

Ive always loved tiny Picos like this. But never can find a clear "tank". Bought a Pico Pro for a 2 gallon jar tank but the glass is always blurry on everything i see. this one is beautiful and clear! Totally jelly.
