Mysterious geometric "crop circles" - some as large as six feet in diameter 80 feet below the surface - were recently observed on the sandy seabeds of Amami Oshima in Southern Japan.

Pacific Sun is introducing a new advanced T5 lighting system for these aquarists. The new Diuna features 313 to 800 watts of fluorescent lighting with individual anodized aluminum reflectors. All this light is controlled wirelessly via bluetooth with four to five independent channels. by Admin | Aug 16, 2013 | Advanced Aquarist

I'm in the process of setting up a new reef tank and went searching for aquascaping ideas, stumbling across the youtube channel by 'otpp225' from Taiwan. To be honest, I don't know anything about him. I don't know if these videos are of his aquariums, are his designs, or whether he's a hobbyist or a professional. What I do know is that these reef aquascapes are beautiful, unique, and inspiring.
