Excuse me, but who are you to say that someone's tank is doomed?
Actually, I don't care who you are. I think it looks fine. Yes, it's overstocked, but things have a way of working themselves out. Let's try to be helpful and supportive instead of pessimistic and trying to be a know-it-all...
Well, I think it looks brilliant. Don't forget to add some more rock! ^_^

Well I kinda have to disagree with you on that one. Its like saying who cares its just a dog. Some ppl care about thier animals it being a snail or a fish. Doesn't matter. I know sometimes ppl over the top but you should care about your animals. No offense

I think the photos of the flagfin angel are awesome! I have one of them except mine is smaller than yours. They are a great angel as long as they are eating and stress free. Good luck with your tank and keep updating with new pics as things progress. I do agree you need to add more live rock so that it will help keep your ecosystem more balanced and help with the overstocking issue. I hope you are using a good protein skimmer too.

Maybe you should look at something you posted a day or so ago. Dont point fingers when you are doing the same. https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/234895/haha-my-bird-just-growed-at-me

While it's aesthetically pleasing, it's not a good environment for those fish. It's a relatively small, two month old (read unstable) tank with minmal liverock. It houses three very sensitive fish, that will be lucky to survive long. Angels and butterflies are species best left to experienced hobbyists and their chance of survival is much higher when placed into well aged systems with lots of live rock. Flagfin and vermiculated angels are very touchy, as is the copprband butterfly. My sense is that these fish will not fare well. There are much better and hardier fish suited to beginner hobbyists.

Just wanted to say whats up! The overflow and heater I got from you are awesome.
Sorry to threadjack, not like this thread was going anywhere.

Hey guys, let's try to stray away from being hostile and personally attcking anyone, please. We need to promote a friendly and helpful enviroment with our replies. By attacking someone, the original poster automatically stops listening. If you really care about the fish, you do not want the person to stop listening to your helpful and experienced advice.
