I saw an awesome tank set up the other day... just beautiful!
So I made a road trip to get something on Craigslist (not fish related) and while talking with the Person it came out that he and wife kept fish. Of course my eyes light up and we start talking about what they keep...mostly an An African set up.. They invite me in to look at the tank and what I see just blows me away. Its a 120 gal tank set into the wall between 2 rooms. What makes this pop out at you is not so much whats in the tank, though they werre all very nice looking and healthy fish.. But its whats around the tank. They built an oak cabinet around it, and inlaid a huge piece of stained glass above the tank and along the side wall. The affect is amazing... Turns out the stained glass panels were actually made by her and the cabinets by him... Talk about a team work project.
Anyhow, I snapped a few pics and asked if I could share them here and they were thrilled.
I came home and started looking my 125 gal in the living room thinking...HMmm... imagine what that would look like with a custom oak cabinet and stained glass images !
Anyhow, if anyone decides they want to do some serious upgrading I have Debbie's card and can give you her email for the stained glass.

My wife could probably do the stained glass but I can't put two tooth picks together.

Brilliant solution to the problem of light spillover, turning it into an asset! And I must say I like the fishing herons
