Mandalay Bay Shark Reef Aquarium Equipment Pics

[Chapz]

Everyone,

Below are pics from the Mandalay Bay Shark Reef Exhibit.
This first thread is pics of the equipment used to maintain the aquarium. I took a behind the scene tour of how the aquarium is set up in vegas where the ocean isnt even viewable from. The tour guide lady gave me a bio filter cartridge. See that in the pics. Also, the aquarium uses instant ocean as a salt mix for set ups. I was told approx. 200 bags a year of instant ocean is used. Those bags are HUGE!
Anyways, Enjoy the pics. I know i enjoyed the exhibit and the Giants also won. I'll be posting another thread for pics of the Inhabitants of the Aquarium. So be prepared for those soon.
