What would you call a fully transferred, instantly stocked tank? Insta Cycle or Insta Stock? If done right im not sure tank actually cycles at all now. But would love to know what the pros think.

You probably asked already and I missed it.
Have you ever browsed a build thread that made you attempt a fish, coral or invert on your "not interested, too difficult to attempt" list?

I don't want bounces or acropora... But after seeing some of these builds.. Lord help me.

LIGHTS LIGHTS LIGHTS ask about lights... cause I am confused.

Peak time, PAR for different coral types, ramp up and down, All blues, blues and whites mixed, heights, spacing, number... etc.

What makes a mature tank "mature?"
Is it time, coral growth, types of algae, pod population, difficulty of fish kept, etc.?

 

[blaxsun]

Which is the all-time best LED light to rule them all?

 

[revhtree]

How satisfied are you with your current tank(s)? If you were able what would you change? (Different equipment, larger tank, smaller tank, different fish, different corals, add a sand bed/get rid of a sand bed).

Sump on a smaller tank, HOB sump, or just a regular filter? Best equipment for small tanks, good stock for small tanks, etc.


I’m going with the “small tank theme”, because that’s all I’ve ever done.

 

[HeyLookItsCaps]

Biological filtration/mechanical filtration or both

t5/led/hybrid t5-led/halide

wave makers/gyres/powerheads

overflow drain type : open standpipes/vented drains (Durso, Stockman etc.)/siphon drains (Herbie, Bean)

sandbed : bare/1-2in/3-4in/5+

I’ll try to think of more!
