Before you comment about the coral inserts, it made the most sense for our client and it being a fish only system and we wanted to just share such a massive installation! Thanks for stopping in everyone, and happy reefing! -Blaine

[@Champsreef303]

Lol coral inserts and it's not 16' it's 2 6' tanks

[@andrewdixon5703]

very nice build. Thank you for sharing.

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Glad you enjoyed it, the install was a blast to be a part of! -Blaine

Here from Paul and Gio!!! Awesome video.

[@thereefinrican]

Awesome work guys. Those tanks, sump, and stand are top notch or shelf. Can’t wait to see what fish you add

[@carlheller6648]

That looks so much fun to build. The sump is so beautiful that i can cry. If i had sump like that, I'd never hide it. If i work with you, I'll never go home, lol

[@TopShelfAquatics]

RIGHT?!? That sump was absolutely insane! -Blaine

[@alissawelch4080]

I believe I registered for the giveaway. It says to post on a post to say you did. Definitely very cool. Dream tank!

[@Olyyyvia]

Hey 👋 I’m visiting Winterpark, Florida for 2 weeks in May and June and can’t wait to come by top shelf and see everything in person and meet the staff! My brother and his fiancé are getting married and going on their honeymoon so I’m hoping to come buy something awesome as like a wedding gift for them. See y’all soon 👋 I’m so excited!

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Looking forward to it! When you get in just ask for me and I’ll take you on a tour through the farm! Congrats to your brother! -Blaine

[@johnqtv1978]

You guys are amazing. Keep building...

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Thank you!!! We will for sure keep making dreams come alive! -Blaine

[@RyanFelt]

Hope those corals are okay, they seem to be out of water for some time

[@jackiekearney]

😅😅😅

[@TopShelfAquatics]

They made it I promise. -Blaine

i’d love to have such an awesome tank one day!

[@TopShelfAquatics]

One day! It can happen! -Blaine

[@user-cf5kc6em2p]

The system is great but, the tag line said 16' aquarium. Where is the 16' aquarium at?

[@KoiBoy6]

Mallory Square, Lake Nona.

[@mryes413]

The tank stand is 16ft and can hold two tanks.

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Glad you enjoyed the system! -Blaine

[@1stexecutiveconstruction]

Not a full 16' tank. A 16' stand- yes!

[@quintin-johnsmith8363]

Absolutely hate fake coral inserts. Looks semi great when the tank is setup but as the tank matures, it gets covered by green hair algae, coralline algae and all sort of other things. Tank build and setup is amazing and gonna be a great tank watch in the future. Good money on maintenance contracts for this one. 👍

[@norcalreefing]

Where can one get those extension cords showed being used on the apex?

[@mryes413]

Its best to have a fowlr tank with fake corals.

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Appreciate you dropping knowledge in the comment section! -Blaine

[@carlosthereefer]

That's a thing of beauty 😍People that are hating on the fake corals need to chill a little 😂😂😂

[@TopShelfAquatics]

I didn't choose the coral insert life, the coral insert life choose me. -Blaine

[@opethmike]

@@TopShelfAquaticsyou said ‘insert’ lololol

[@00HiGhGuY00]

It makes complete sense for a commercial project like this that they didn't want the added complexity of keeping live coral, but I think it would've looked a LOT better to just have an amazing rockscape rather than those undeniably fake looking coral inserts. Also, it would've looked better to just have a 12 foot tank, than 2 six foot tanks separated by a TV.

[@farrl]

Hate the fake corals, plain live rock would look much better.

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Well the client sure loved it! Tough having a bunch of predator fish and big angels with corals, but I value your opinion! -Blaine

[@mjumper]

I stopped watching at fake corals...

[@mryes413]

We get it you don't have a FOWLR tank

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Glad you at least clicked the video, don't worry we have a ton of content with corals! Also, we work for the client and do whatever their hearts desire! -Blaine

[@CHOPRJOHN]

Awesome build, well worth the money, unfortunately fake coral looks like just what it is, fake coral no matter the design or cost!

[@mryes413]

Would you have a reef tank with real corals with predators and/or non reef safe fish or a fowlr tank with fake corals?

[@CHOPRJOHN]

@@mryes413 If i was going with a predator tank, it would probably be a fowlr , with maybe some saltwater plants, and of course a rock aquascape

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Just fulfilling the wants of the client, and for a fish only system sometimes inserts are the best option to add that splash of color. -Blaine

[@Vroomy1986]

Oh dear, people still loving the fake stuff 😢 great equipment though

[@mryes413]

Would you have a tank with a surgeon fish that pics at your mushrooms and acro or a tank with fake corals?

[@Vroomy1986]

@mryes413 I understand the concept haha

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Equipment was insane! With a fish only system and what the client wants, it was the perfect option. -Blaine

[@qnonbs]

Fake corals always looks terrible.

[@acuariomarino5075]

Fantastic Project but Waste aquarium fake corals 😢

[@lucidairity7927]

It's often a shame but with many people the fish they want to have can be so pick are aggressive with their corals it's pointless so they often have a completely separate coral system

[@mryes413]

Fake corals are used for fish that aren't reef safe or for people who can't afford the expensive things.

[@lucidairity7927]

@@mryes413 mate it's one thing to buy something expensive its another to have to repurchase it every week and risk the quality of life for the fish because of water constantly being contaminated by decaying animals(corals sponges anemones etc) that are half picked apart

[@mryes413]

@@lucidairity7927 ok

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Reminder it is tough to keep a large amount of species in reef tanks, especially in an account for an apartment clubhouse. Not a hobbyist tank, but better yet a piece of art. Thanks for stopping in and leaving a comment! -Blaine

[@outplayedbyjabo9101]

I stopped watching at 4:03

[@TopShelfAquatics]

Sorry to hear! Just fulfilling the clients wants, remember this isn't YOUR system! Thanks for stopping in! -Blaine

[@luissegadepinin8780]

For me this is garbage double tank. Is like a stupid shit n the middle of em 🤷🏻‍♂️ ..... Pfffff.....

[@michaelannscecina7080]

Good project, but it is not a 16' tank. It is a 16' stand with multiple tanks. Way less interesting. Clickbait = (

[@user-zf3zq2xo7p]

Here from Paul and Gio!!! Awesome video.
