Young and the Skinny: Jmu Needs To Go On Diet

One of my divers called in sick, so I had to dive and clean the Dream Hotel tank. Lets face it, some jobs require young and skinny. 

I did enjoy myself actually. One of our clients, the Dream Hotel here in NYC, requires regular tank diving in order to scrub and clean the synthetic reef insert. The tank is about 30' tall and has a 6' diameter (7,000 gallons). We have about 18" between the acrylic wall and the reef insert in order to move and clean. If I cant fit in the tank, no carbs for a month. The cleaning itself during most dives can be labor intensive. Most inserts are cleaned with brushes, and some we have the use of a pressure washer. The tough part is not to get stung by the rabbit fish, the large lions, and not to get attacked by the Kidako Moray. 

Our installer, Dave Yarber, free dives this tank which is very impressive.
