Cool reef tank

[SeanH]

I have no idea whose tank this is, public or private, but I thought it was fairly cool. Anyone know where this pic was taken?

It is Pieter Van Suijlekom's of the Netherlands. It is one of the largest and most extensive aquaria in private ownership. 20 ft long. There is a nice article on it in Coral Magazine "Tobies" Volume 7, Number 4

There's also an online write-up at Reefkeeping magazine for the ReefCentral Feb 2006 TOTM: http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-02/totm/index.php

I am heading to Amsterdam and the Hague tonight. Has anybody ever seen a reference regarding the physical location of this famous tank?

I don't know the exact street address but it is in the showroom of "Open Fireplace Centre," in Vlaardingen, Netherlands, on the second floor. A little over an hour drive from Amsterdam.

I remember reading recently that the tank is (or very recently way) in a huge rennovation and is (was) essentially being restarted. I saw pics somewhere of the new rockwork, which is way more open than the "standard wall of rock" look that is shown in the picture above, but in my 5 minutes of searching just now, I couldnt find them again.

 

Here is a link to the article that A. Byrnes mentioned.
