An all-in-one easybutton test and dosing device that covers Ca/dKH/N03/P04/Mg that would ideally do its thing for at least two weeks without needing to be monitored.
Bonus points if its sub $1000 and double bonus points if it required no reagents to test.

I want biolumi coral that recharges during the day when you have your blue's and uv on, and glows at night.
I want a CBB and Moorish Idol which won't go on a hunger strike from you looking at it funny.
A super PB Tang, or Achiles Tang which aren't ich magnets, or will get ich even tho you 100% sure you did the QT process properly, yet they still show white spots.
A UV sterilizer for fish that you can just put in a box for 10 min and skip the entire QT process.
Actual salt water fish that will school together in a tight shoul and not end up commiting self genocide.
A stop it button for fish when they start getting violent with each other.

I’d settle for a “Trident Nutrients” that just tested No3 & Po4…
Also… Nanobots, you can program them to take out Aiptasia, Bubble Algae, coral pests, fish parasites, nuisance algae’s.. even clean the glass
Maybe even settle disputes between two tangs and create harmony on our reefs

A way to test and quantify exactly what is in the water.

This is false… for one corals are not plants lol.. they’re animals and aquascape only needs good flow and hiding/ home spaces for other animals and critters.. the corals “animals” build their own reef on the foundation you lay.Couldn't disagree more.
From an aquascaping perspective coral is just a slow growing plant and that's super important to scaping. However maybe your point was that freshwater relies a lot on rock formations to build around, whereas reef wants it only as a foundation. On that I agree!
All the same principles can exist in reef scapes including the use of SPS, LPS and importantly macroalgae. Is it the same challenge? Of course not - Reefs present all their own unique challenges but that's why I wish experienced scapers and aquarists would band together to provide better and better examples and guidelines for us all to build from.

Ah come on I was clearly speaking as to how it relates to aquascaping, which includes space and thought for all life in the tank. Let's not get into semantics here.

Easy to do with a piece of acrylic behind your tank…
