Rate my tank!

[Scoobs9083]

You don't have to be kind.. I want a honest opinion and some suggestions if you don't like something. I plan on adding another clam on that sand bed but thats when I find a really nice one and got the money to blow on it. Give me a 1-10 please.. 1 being horrible 10 being the most awesome thing ever.



Thanks!

7 out of 10

Looks good but personally I cant stand GSP(green star polyp). As you can see, it can take over a tank pretty quick leaving you less placement for other coral. Other than that personal issue, it looks great!

[Ostni]

I'll give you an 8, it looks great. I like the star polyps on the back glass. The only suggestion I would give you is to maybe get another fish.

[Ritten]

move those little frags off the sand and pick up the nori clip and I give it a 10.

7/10

[adddo]

I'd give it an 7 out of 10 from my personal opinion on what i would like my tank to look like. Its a nice clean and healthylooking tank

But in my opinion the only opinion that really matters is your own.

[mg426]

very nice 7.5

[LobsterOfJustice]

7 for the following reasons:

1. I dont see any fish
2. Somewhat lacking color
3. Still looks like a pile of rock. Changing the aquascaping, or waiting for those SPS to grow out will give it more dimension.

[yellowwatchmen]

There is a clown in the upper right hand corner. And it looks like there might be a fish behind the brain. 6/10

[zach0660]

Looks clean and everybody looks healthy and happy!!
7/10

[HBtank]

1/10 I think it is disgusting to leave a dead clownfish just laying there on the bottom!






















Jk

8/10, I would eliminate some GSP, add some more fishies and get a monti cap in there for a nice shelf. Keep adding SPS for more brancing structure. Lights seem low on kelvin, it is browning everything out (in apppreance). Those GSP and hammers should pop green.

[ReefDreamz]

what light do you have?

[Andrew]

looks really good! I would just frag up those GSP and see if the lfs will trade your store credit for them.

[beaglelax]

a 10 a frciken 10 looks great man i wish i had enough knowledge to run a reef tank. you know whats next u gotta get a bigger tank

[LukFox]

7/10

Good things:
-Looks clean
-healthy
-I personally love the GSP growing on the back glass.
-That clam is gorgeous!

Bad things:
-rock work is just so-so
-I only see one fish? At least give the clown a mate .

7.5

I would get the GSP off the back of the glass and also consider moving the frags off the sand and back on the rock.

Once your SPS's grow out it will be a big difference

[Scoobs9083]

wow thanks for the response! I have 14k Hamiltons and I have 3 fish one being a jaw fish one is a gold bar clown and the other being a Purple Stripe Pseudochromis. I have a nice bright red shrimp to..

I frag the GSP all the time my LFS gives me credit on them.. It's nice I don't have to buy salt any more my GSP buy it for me..

What other fish do you guys think would go well with my tank? and I see what you are saying about color but not sure exactly how to fix it. The 14k should do the trick but I agree with ya it is a little lack luster. Only thing I have that really pops is a couple mushrooms and the cali tort has some amazing colors.

[aquarius77]

Im gonna give ya a 5 because you let those brown star polyps take over your tank. Too bad the froggy dont shoot out some sweepers and wipe them out...

Other than that it looks great.

[phannay]

add a little pop of color and it will look much better

[bill-fit]

I think this tank is going to be pretty close to a 10 a year to two from now.

I say this because it has the appearance that growth has occured rather than being staged. Its clean looking, your keeping the water parrameters correct.

If you just keep going like you are let your frags grow out and trim gsp when something needs more space the tank will be awsome.

[jmgpr7]

Looks really good , need some fishes 7/10

[xtm]

- I personally LOVE GSP (as you can see, people have differing opinions... most people hate to see outbreaks of GSP but I honestly DO love GSP) I give you an A for letting it grow on your backwall. GSP look 500% better than coralline, just swaying with the waves....

- Overall coloration.. what kind of bulbs ya run? I like the bluish glow but your softies do look pale. B- here..

- Sand looks clean. A+ here

- Terrible placement of the clam IMO. Can you imagine that thing growing into a gargantuan behemoth on top of those rocks? It needs to go to the sandbed IMO. Grade: C-

- Those powerheads need to be more concealed. On a small tank, the powerheads stick out like a sore thumb and should be covered by something... or better yet, do a closed loop. B- on this department.

- The dead clownfish on the left side.. oh my goodness. I give you A+ on the dead clownfish

- I see some dead Torch skeleton right on top of the clam.. that needs to go.. lol

Overall score... 6.

Sorry I didn't mean to be so judgmental..

[Bono007]

nice tank 7.5

[mfp1016]

Some cheap zoas frags and some more mushrooms to fill in the gaps along the bottom (where the rock meets the sand). Good coralline growth. Of course, like all tanks more corals the better! Also, on another note, its kind of crappy for people to give you crap about your colors not popping, or the tank being a little brown looking. First, its a bow front, already making FTS harder to take and make look good. Secondly, FTS never really show a whole lot of color when zoomed out. I think it looks good! 8/10

[WarrenAmy&Maddy]

thats a TEN !!! your tank looks great!

i like the GSP - espec the way you have it on the back glass - its easy to grow and it makes things more natural looking - what a lot of tanks need - and like xenia (or macro for that matter) its not that hard to keep in check and better yet - it HELPS pay the bills!

good luck!
