Nice work, It's not my kind of thing, but it is very well done.

Very nice indeed! It would be nice to see at least some of the rest of the room to get a sense of how this style either compliments or contrasts. But I really like it. Clever design and excellent execution.

Is that a Coral Tank?
How about the finish, enclosed environments such as this get pretty hot due to the lights and heaters that are on at least 15hours a day.
Can you elaborate on the coating?

Looks beautiful

Yes there is a lot of coral in the tank.(I'm not a fish guy) The finish is Zar exterior oil polyurethane. Started with 2 coats of their sealer and followed with 3 coats of the topcoat.Inside faces of all the wood (even the flipper doors at the top is a KILZ product per owners spec's. The area above the tank has a fan for venting heat and humidity out of the area.
