So i'm bored..so here is a thread to see how creative you guys can get. Post up some ideas you have for DIY, Projects, Reef tank designs, anything really related to hobby....I just want to be amused LOL and who knows maybe some really good ideas will come of this and cause a subject of conversation.

I'll start.

I was just told about a FOWLR tank installed in an globe rated sail boat. The tank was fully enclosed and all livestock had to be placed into a "loading" zone where they would then travel through a tub before finding their way into the display tank. This is how all stocking was done.
 
I want a 6 foot tall skimmer with a 24" diameter cylinder, run with 4 sequence 4200 series pumps Becket Injected! It will have an 18" tall cup and the skimmer will have ozone injection also! The outlet will feed a calcium/Kalk reactor!

Hurry up and make it already! :D

That's crazy!! Ever saw the picture of that beach somewhere that was all foamed up like a giant skimmer?? I need to try and find that. People were playing in it like it was bubbles. :lol:
 
He is in Dubai. His "tank" is a 19000 gallon display with 10000 gallon fuge/holding area fed by the ocean behind him. He has been battling algae the entire time and now has a 45'x50' algae turf scrubber or something ridiculous as well as sand bed filtration system, that 500 gallon skimmer etc etc etc.
