On a scale from 1 to 10, how happy are you with how your tank looks?

[AlyciaMarie]

Our tanks are often a work in progress. If you're greedy like me, you're always thinking of ways to make your tank bigger, better, and more full of life! Maybe you have a goal in mind that you're trying to reach, or maybe you've set the bar and are perfectly happy with how it's looking right now. Let's discuss it!

On a scale from 1 to 10, how happy are you with how your tank looks? Is there anything you want to change about it?

(1 = I just need to start over...10 = It's the most beautiful thing I've ever laid my eyes on!)

I voted 7, im generally happy with my tank, just wish it was filled in more.

I wish I had more tank height so I could slope the rock some. I'd have to do a screen top + new light to get it further away from the water. Then I could slope it slope with its current height. As it is the corals are happy and I don't want to change anything. lol

8. I’m happy with it, and it’s been quite the journey. Definitely not perfect. I think we are overly critical of our own tanks, and sometimes need the perspective of others to help us appreciate them more.

What do you feel like you needs improvement in your tank?

What do you feel like you needs improvement in your tank?

I lost the centerpiece of the tank about a year or two ago. It was a large “Solar Flare” Acropora Millepora colony about the size of my hands. Also I lost a large colony of orange Montipora Setosa that was on the right side. It made the tank much more vivid and colorful. And the Pocillipora sometimes insists on growing in spots I don’t want it to, but I still enjoy it in general.

I say an 8. I am happy with the tank and scape. At this point it just needs to fill in.

My tank is far from perfect but I am actually very happy with the results I am getting after less than a year of having the tank. Healthy corals, healthy fish and fairly stable parameters.

What are you hoping to fill it in with?

The sps to grow out. I have a few spots left for frags but other than that once they grow out it will hopefully fill in the nicely.

I am happy until I see someone else's tank online and then I'm unhappy lol

I voted a 5, I do love how my corals are growing (for the most part) and the overall look. This being my first tank and gaining almost 3 years of knowledge and experience I can see where I can improve things. Changing the scape up to improve flow for coral, moving the wave maker to a more optimal position for better overall tank flow to clear detritus among other things. I guess I would love to see a poll on how many people rebooted their first tank after learning in this hobby!.

Been watching your vids and love your tank! Can’t wait until mine is this mature.

 

[Semper.Reefing]

Voted 10 bc I can’t complain how well everything is growing and maturing for only 5 months old!

 

[ReefStash]

Always room for improvement - on a scale of 1-10 rating my happiness with the look of my tank, I’m a 9. I’d like to see less algae on my rocks.

 

[Manose]

I am at a 10 because its a new tank and the rock work is spot on

 

[VintageReefer]

I’m a solid 9. I adding a bunch of sps tomorrow and once they grow in I’ll be a 10

Also have an issue with an acantho now…kinda upset about it. Trying to get it to recover.

Overall though, I’m very happy with it

 

[Pascal]

I would have quote 9 in the past. I have now a smaller tank and am struggling continuously with Dino’s. Very hard to get understanding control.
