I assume by a regular tank, you mean one which contains Freshwater Fish, such as a goldfish tank. A reef tank consists of a mixed marine environment, containing a mixture of reef fish, corals, invertebrates, and other organisms.
With respect to freshwater tanks, there are several types. Ciclid tanks, planted tanks, tropical tanks, and cold-water tanks could all be considered distinct types.
Marine tanks come in just as many varieties also. There are cold-water varieties, reef tanks, FOWLR (Fish Only With LiveRock), lagoon tanks, and many others.
Hope this helps.
How should I know
Other reef fishes.
on the reef
It is a reef and also has pretty fish
there is over 4000 species of fish living in the coral reef
They herd the fish against a reef wall, so the fish are cornered.
yes parrot fish do live in the great barrier reef.
The coral reef is a home to many types of fish.
The symbiotic relationship between sea turtles and coral reef fish is primarily mutualistic. Sea turtles help maintain the health of coral reefs by grazing on seagrass and algae, preventing overgrowth that can smother corals. In return, reef fish often clean the turtles by removing parasites and dead skin, benefiting from the food source and promoting the turtles' overall health. This interaction supports the biodiversity and stability of the reef ecosystem.

A fringing reef forms a continuous underwater "wall" for some distance, where as a "barrier Reef" are shorter in distances, and have large gaps in them....and will be between shore and the Barrier Reef..............Sea Rambo
