Review my tank?

[Perpetual Novice]

Hi all.

I’ve been working hard on this tank since I set it up 4 months ago. I think it’s finally ready for critical review. It’s a 30 gallon biocube. What do you all think? Any advice and suggestions are welcome.

Very nice! I like it!

I think the #tangpolice are going to have a field-day. I would guess, even while small, that guy is gonna get stressed and sick and reek havoc on your tank

As with all reviews, I'll try to be fair.
The positive: Overall looks really cool, man. Corals look wonderful. Don't let a little algae get you down.

The negative: Some of your fish should be in a bigger tank, but especially the tang. The wrasse should have a slightly bigger tank on the order of 55gal, but the tang needs a much larger tank and is a priority to rehome. It just won't do well in such a cramped space.

The wrasse I am still debating to rehome or not but the tang is destined for my 75 gallon tank when it grows more and then I have arranged to trade it to my LFS when it outgrows that tank.

The tank is beautifully arranged, well stocked (others have not agreed with that assessment) for now, and everything in there looks fairly happy. The algae maybe too happy, but if you keep after it you can eliminate it in time. The various corals you have stocked look very nice and will be consuming Alk & Ca pretty quickly as the tank matures.

You might consider shortening the photoperiod and lower the feedings to help combat the algae, and other treatments may be necessary but I think you will figure it out.

Thank you for posting all of the pictures.
