Hello everyone!
So I’m planning my next build which is still a long way in the pipeline, but looking for anyone who may have done a similar setup.
After having loved my cube reef and tried the barebottom and my hand at Acros I was wondering if anyone had ever seen or done a single species acro reef?
As in a cube barebottom tank with just one monster green/blue Stag and like 5 azure damsels. Nice white lighting similar to the Swiss style reefs. I’ve always wanted to try something like this with maybe an encrusting sps on the bottom. Minimalist, light and can truly capture the natural structures that these corals create.
After having done my cube and having close on 50 different corals in such a small space, I could never let any coral grow out long term because it would start to encroach on other corals.
Only difficult part of this that I can see would be fighting the urge to add anything else to the tank once setup.
