Just stumbled across this article/interview.
This guys setup is just incredible.. 870gallon... and a 500litre water change a week! I thought my 40 litre change was bad, yikes!

They are getting ready to install a large touch pool as well. It will have horseshoe crabs, sharks and stingrays for people to "pet".

Both of these systems are sick. The 870g and the stuff you posted kj. OMG! Wow!

The 870g has more plumbing than my house does. Hahahaha!

Personally, the actual act of changing the water isn't of great interest to me. I'd much rather have the time to spend getting everything properly clean and "just so" if the water change could be handled automatically.
