This huge Torch colony was being hosted in by some Ocellaris clownfish.
Sohal - man those streamers are gorgeous!
These huge rose bubble tip anemones hosted a pair of Cinammon Clownfish. The main one used to be 24" wide before the split. It was about 12" wide that morning.

I asked about the maintenance. They'd changed 40g that day, and the zoo feeds the tank each day. They have specific rules, such as you can't kill anything in the tank. So aiptasia can't be nuked, and flatworms get to thrive. Kind of crazy, but the signed contract requires that they follow the guidelines. In front of the tank are two permanent binders that have heavily-laminated pages about each animal or coral in the tank.
The sump beneath uses Miracle Mud. The skimmer (not pictured) is a My Reef Creations, running externally at the end of the tank. The Aqua Controller II helps track tank parameters.
Closed loop plumbing; eggcrate keeps jumpers in the tank.
The pumps employ timed gate valves that switch the flow from one side of the tank to the other. Calcium Reactor in the forefront
A control panel to see what is on or off.
