This week's video is about the Long Island Aquarium's 15 year old reef, and you will learn how it has been so well maintained over that period by the guy that cares for it personally / daily. I'm told it looks great on a TV, so port this to your giant flatscreen, select HD and enjoy.
This blog is long overdue. I was reading a blog on here about a dream tank and figured I would show mine. I'm sure everyone remembers Marc's (Melev) leaky Marineland custom 400g tank...
