Is that a person in that tank?
Sure is, and yes this is the same tank as previously listed. Its former version got away

things, such as polishing the inside of the tank.
Tank Size - 96" Long x 48" Wide x 24" Tall, 11/4" thick Acrylic
Filtration - Reservoir with Live Rock
Pump(s) - One Iwaki 100RLT, Three 3800 GPH Spa Pumps
Protien Skimmer - 5ft. Top Fathom, venturi driven
Lighting - Two 400 wt 20,000K-HQI MH, Six 110 wt. VHO Flourescents
Additional Equipment - Seaswirl, osc.discharge
Placement - In Wall between Living Room and Office
