I have this 15 gallon reef tank, I am currently in the middle of redoing it. I let it go for a while and neglected and saved what I could. I am currently not sure what I actually want to do with it.

Please give me suggestions and your ideas please

First off, what vision do you have for your tank? By that I mean...

* aquascape
* coral selections
* fish
* equipment

This will give people a better idea of what you would like to achieve and give them better opinions to offer.

I’m unsure of the vision right now. But I do want a mixed reef of LPS and Softies with the equipment I have now. I use a k7 mini. I have a flameback angelfish which is the ruler of the tank so fish wise I don’t plan on adding anything.

Honestly, the image is far too blue for me to make out details.


Edit: I would like more information about your tank? 🙂

1). This sounds like a vision.
2). Pic is so blue. Can't really do much with that.
3). More info about the tank, light, flow might help.

Here is white light. Sorry for the late response. Battling algae. But seeing less and less through better tank care.

Light : K7 mini by Noo-Psyche
Tank : innovative marine 15 Gallon AIO cube.
Flow is through the Original return pump that comes with the tank and an sicce voyager mini I believe.

I think if you added more rock in there (maybe make it be more vertical), it would make a huge difference for your tank!
