What does the "average" reef tank look like?

[Ljaus]

Thanks

I think most of us will say average cause we always know of a better looking tank.

I think we always judge our own tanks lower than others. We our own worst critiques.

I think what is considered "average" is really a matter of perception in the eye of the beholder :-)

Here is my average 2y/o tank

Now that I think about it I think we need another category "my tank is awesome because my animals are healthy and well cared for". And here's some closeups of my favorite healthy animals that I keep!!!

Mine after 3 years in the hobby. Just managed to put things under control 9 months ago. Still a lot to learn for sure.

Definitely more than average

Definitely some nice tanks, we call them average because they aren't show pieces but they are definitely nice. This is a great post so we can all feel good about our tanks. This is what the real world looks like for those of us that have jobs, families, and maybe a little bit of a social life.

I consider mine average as it contains a lot of frags I'm waiting to grow in. My biggest regret and blessing at the same time is the huge wall of rock. I'd like to have done it Scaped differently, but, it's also about 150+ lbs of rock in a 90 gallon and most is what a lot of people would consider rubble so bio filter works great. I now have some encrusted corals across multiple rocks so just gonna go with it.
