"Honey, check out this fishtank on HGTV..."

said my wife.
So I'm expecting some 10 gal. Nemo tank. Boy was I humbled.
The tank has dimensions of 10' x 9' x 4' (or something) w/ 3" acryllic window. The sides and back are made of 10" concrete. The lighting is 6000 watts. I forget the flow, but it was ripping. I think the owner mentioned something about 2.5 HP pumps.
Anyhow, this thing probably dwarfs the reef tank at the NEAQ and if not, the selection of corals and fish do.

One funny part was when the owner thought they could build it on their own for $20k. I laughed and told my wife "yeah, right, more like 100k". Sure enough that's what she figures she's spent to date.
I think it replays next week:
