This reef aquarium is slightly bigger than yours (yes, you too Ralf!)

Ever wonder what it takes to build, support and maintain a 20,000 gallon living coral reef aquarium?  Joe Yaiullo graciously takes us behind the scenes in Advanced Aquarist’s February, 2007 Feature Aquarium article.

How time flies!  Since then, Atlantis Marine World underwent a huge 97,498-square-foot, $24 million expansion and officially changed their name to Long Island Aquarium & Exhibition Center.  We get the great opportunity to revisit their 20,000 gallon reef thanks to youtube member ‘mmmCHOCOLATES’ (love the name!).  The LIA reef display has matured impressively.  Congrats to Joe and the entire staff at LIA for all their success.
