And I thought the picture of a carpet anemone in a nanocube was bad

How irresponsible can you get? It's like advertising a 1'x1' crib with 3 babies crammed in!
 
I believe ads like that or similar just take fish and insert them in their tanks tyo make them more appealing to the consumer. Think about, you see a beautiful tank with beatiful fish and you want that tank and those fish. It is just a selling point. I dont think they woud cram that many fish into a tank that size, having it un cycled just for a picture. Photoshop does wonders.
 
I completely understand the photoshopping, but IMO it still encorages poor reefkeeping. I think that if thoughs fish would be happy in such a small aquarium, it would be a beautiful setup too.
 
You know some jacka$$ with no experience in reef keeping would try that exact set up. I agree with the photoshop angle, that plant in the back ground looks like one I've had in my freshwater aquarium. :)
 
Everyone knows you can keep three tangs in that size of tank as long as they are all of a different genus. What is the problem? :confused:



;)
 
When I was getting my cousin started in the hobby, he seen something similar at an LFS. He called me asking how many triggers he could keep in his 5g minibow.
 
And with the Internet, you know there is some joker ordering just that for his 6g nano-cube. We just don't see it.
 
OH NO...Look at this ad tank!!!

You all seem to be assuming the tank is round. Maybe it's just rounded on the end, narrow, and is actually 15 feet deep. :)
 
no it is actually round, cause a lfs by me has them, i was looking at them thinking that it would make a cool nano the other day.
 
Even though it is photoshop and is done for advertising only reasones I agree with chinchek and it souldn't be done. These companies need to be educated because there are people who will do exactly that.

Ummmmmm..... I don't think thats all the Michael Jackson fish does with children... If I were you I would refer to the "whats the most in-humane way to kill a Michael Jackson fish" thread... :D

no it is actually round.

So, technically it is infinitely long, having no true end. Which means it is larger than the largest rectangular tank available. Therefore, it is completely acceptable to house several large tangs in it. :) :D
