Nice. I wish I had room for that many large tanks. I am envious.

I designed all the cabinets including the home theater cabinets so everything looks the same.
I did get some good pricing on a couple of those filters, you can imagine they were not purchased all at the same time, my wife would have killed me a long time ago.
