Ya know, there are ugly monsters & not so ugly monster just like there are ugly midgets & pretty midgets. But a midget is not a monster. A Ferarri is not a Mack Truck.
it all depends on who is viewing it in my opinion. on here, my tank is itty bitty and my fish are whatever.. to all my friends who aren't in the hobby, i have a bigass tank with badass fish in it. i went with the first option.
My 200g is big enough for me, so i recon anything 180+ is a monster. Over here in Aus i dont personally know anyone who has a bigger tank that me, so when my mates come over there like F#$@ thats a big tank.
