Default Dry Tank

I have thought of something like this but dry coral is not cheap. Maybe
think of some of the newer display corals. It would give more color to
the tank and only be a little more expensive. Cleaning the tank will
such since you will have to occasionaly dust the corals, but no
different than a dry tank.

Default Dry Tank

If a glass top is put on, the corals would not even need
to be dusted, but I personally would not be interested in
a graveyard tank. If it were me, I'd repair it, or at
least repair it enough to make it into a terrarium.

Some reason or other, I just can not see where it would be impossible
or all that expensive to reseal a glass tank......If the panes are not
cracked, its certianly resealable. I have already redone a 210 gal
tank, and would love to get my hands on a leaking 500 gal......If yur
gonna turn it into a dry tank with bleacked corals etc, may as well
just hang a picture up of a reef..........
