New tank: ideas?

[lucas-grimm]

New tank! This is a Maxspect dice 12. Running a Sicce 2.0 upgraded return pump, Hygger 1321 at 50%, and will be lit with a 100w Nicrew. As you can see its bare bottom as well, as I am planning on doing an Acro dominated sps only tank with no exceptions. However since I haven’t started adding corals yet I’m interested to see if anyone has any other ideas. For fish: I’ve quarantined 1 banggai cardinal, 1 neon dottyback, 1 azure damsel, and 1 flame angel as the showpiece fish, and I’m planning on getting a pair of clowns to finish my fish stocking.

Looks like it's on a countertop and the shadow makes it hard to see how level it is. If OP didn't use a foam mat underneath then should probably reach out to the manufacturer to see if it's needed. Most rimless requires it.

Also, personally I think that's too many fish for a 12g and for a Flame Angel I would say atleast a 40g.

This.

At best the tank is suited to the pair of clowns. Maybe some small gobies would be ok.

It is on a counter, on a leveling mat, the shadow just makes it appear unlevel. This is not its final resting spot, just where it will be for the next month or two.

Water cleanliness wise the tank will be able to handle the larger fish load as I’ll be doing relatively large water changes. As far as the fish go, they are all tiny and I plan on moving the flame to my 240 once it’s too large to be comfortable in the nano.
