Anyone who is willing, would you please create a reef tank showcase profile here: https://www.reef2reef.com/showcase/categories/r2r-member-reef-tanks.31/add

Take your time and fully complete it!

As you complete the profile would you post back in here if you see any issues relating to the following:

1. Questions that should be added.

2. Things that may be misspelled.

3. Items that are just wrong.

4. Anything else that needs addressing.

Thank you!

PS. We have a new badge coming for those who add their reef to the showcase!

On aquarium age. That's not static. Maybe better to ask when it was started and intelligently calculate age? I don't think people will go back to a profile and update 'age' every month.

That’s great insight! Will make that change.

The age was a tough question - As people upgrade is it when the upgrade went into effect, or is it when the system was started. Is my system 20+ years old or only 9months.

You asked about the pumps and lights and calcium reactor - but didn't allow people to specify skimmer type/brand.

It seems like with the check box for overflow type their should be options for the drain type (durso, herbie, etc) also, or a text box to list which style you have.

No prob. A few uppercase/lowercase mishmash. Probably want some consistency there. Sometimes it's NONE, sometimes None. Sometimes the 2nd word is uppercase, sometime not ...

I just tried it out. I used my rare fish tank which presented a couple issues.
  1. I don't test for magnesium and calcium because there are no hard corals but they are both listed as required items. They should be optional.
  2. The fish listing should include predator fish or more categories (eels, lionfish, frogfish, etc). Other feels underwhelming.
Really like it otherwise.
