    Hey,
    That tank is so cool,but does anyone think know if the diver in the tank would affect the filtration system( skimmer performance etc)?
    Cheers

    Looking at the corners, i would imagine that is acrilic and probably 3/4 inches thick (100mm) and there is a ladder going out of shot on the right:)
