Have you seen acropora nut's fish tank? It is one of the most amazing SPS tanks I have ever seen! Check his tank out…

I've seen that thread. Thats an amazing tank but my favorites are still those tanks on the thread featured the tanks from Italy. Also, check out this thread that's currently running http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1158779

I think the tank looks nice but I have to say to me it looks like it has not been setup for very long. First it doesn’t look like there are a lot of coralline algae on the few pieces of live rock showing. Second the growth formation on a few of those corals looks like what you would find from a coral that was just taken from the ocean not the growth formation of a colony grown from a frag. I guess I prefer a tank like acropora nut’s, Menards, or drbronx :) that looks like the corals were grown in the tank not just put there for a photo. I think this tank is really nice but it is not one of the best I have seen…

On second look, I have to agree with you. i prefer tanks that look more like a natural reef like Acro Nuts. The one I posted has incredible corals but the tank dose have a posed too perfect look and almost artificial appearance. Also to many of the corals are samoensis, humilis or similar acro morphs. Incredible colors though.

Yes the colors are very nice! I would love a teal/blue or rose colored acropora humilis!! It is a cool looking tank that is for sure!

You have a good eye for TOTMs. Even without the benefit of a full tank shot, this may be the nicest sps tank I've yet . The fish are incredible as well. Thanks for the link nate. very inspiring and humbling.
