I don't believe that any specific tanks provide better flavor for specific flavors per se.

You sound like a beginner vaper, so I'll recommend a tried and true tank that's been used successfully for years and is recommended for new vapers. It uses factory made replaceable coils. Change the coils about every 2 - 4 weeks, when the flavor becomes muted or begins to taste burnt. The Aspire Nautilus is available in two sizes.

Well, and if you are into direct lung inhales and large amounts of vapor,
look into the Aspire Atlantis EVO.
If you want to get into building your own coils at some point the Kanger Protank 4.

I love creamy and custardy vapes. And i like them in huge dense clouds.
I prefer a RBA, rebuildable atomizer, but one of the tanks mentioned will work just fine.

For anyone that wants to use tanks with cartridge coils, I always recommend the tanks that are part of the Atlantis type cartridge "family"... it's a design that is very proven, as several companies have been making these cartridge coils that are near identical, which gives you a huge selection of types thanks to this.

The tanks I recommend are:

Eleaf:
Melo 2 (sliding door for top fill is probably the best design in any tank)
Melo 3 (top fill is screw top)
iJust (bottom fill)

Aspire:
Triton (V1 is a lock to close flow and pop-off top, excellent design, very easy, nice metal cage tank. V2, the metal cage was removed and the top is now a screw-top, I prefer V1)

Freemax:
Scylla (push and twist top fill, neat approach, works well, and you can get an kit version that comes with an RTA, which isn't the greatest but still, it's something to test out if you want to go with RTAs)

For coils, there's a long list, but the beauty is that most are cross compatible, here's a list of other tanks that I didn't mention here and how compatible they are: https://goo.gl/r54pW0

My preference are the Vaperaso ceramic, which I end up taking apart and rebuilding

Note: all of these coils are near identical and are easily taken apart and can be rebuilt, and to be honest, every one of the rebuilds Ive done are better than factory made. I support them enough that I made a image guide about this: Vaperrasso cCell rebuilding

P.S. not to discredit other people's choices as it's all about personal preferences, but the Nautilus is a tank that I can't stand, never liked them and the coils were always short lived, my wife and daughter each had one because of all the "recommendations", and these tanks ended up in a drawer to be forgotten for good the moment they had the much better tanks (as per my suggestion above). And if you vape mouth to lung, you can do this with almost any tank, this simply requires closing the airflow, lowering the wattage, and possible getting a tighter nib/mouth piece.

    That's the cornerstone of my entire vaping philosophy! That you don't believe in, that is. But then, I also tend to believe that most tanks are bad to unusable, not that I've tried all of them, it just seems the trend... Match flavors to your tank/atomizer. This may come down to specific flavors more than an entire flavor family however.

    With creamy flavors only and no desire for bringing out any sort of bite to them, almost any clean tasting tank will be OK, but that's mostly my prejudices talking that I don't think that's the most demanding flavor family.

    I have a few tanks, RDAs, etc. tried many others, and honestly, it's all the basic same.

    It's about the coil, wicking and the airflow (including distance/ chimney length), and proper settings (and different liquids/flavours do work better at different settings). But most tanks are barely truly different from the next.

    Now, not to rain on anyone's parade, as I understand, it's a hobby for many, and it's about trying different things too, and that's fine.

    But whenever I see someone rant about "OMG the flavour with this tank", etc. over and over with every new tank they get. I tend to simply roll my eyes a lot more now. I just go with I guess they didn't know how to set the old one up and with each new tank, they're learning. Maybe the new one is easier for them to set up, but overall, it's not that different.

    Seriously, either your liquid has flavour or it doesn't, it's getting evaporated, aerated and inhaled... there's not that many ways to make this so different that magically it goes "pop" and you can now taste 3 times more.

    I'd generally agree with you but there are some differences between their performance. A for instance would be comparing a large device like the Boreas to a smaller one like the Theorem. They can both perform well but the size difference alone means they perform differently. I suspect differences like this may impact the performance on specific juices but I've no proof or even experience that it does.

    I actually disagree somewhat with that... :) I find that the heat of the vape does affect certain flavors. For creamy and fruity, the cooler vapes tend to fare better. Hotter vapes tend to bring out the overall sweetness or tartness of the juice. As an example, if I put a guava/custard in one of my higher ohm tanks, the guava is the most prevalent on the inhale, but still tasting the custard, and the custard is prevalent on the exhale with hints of guava. If I put the same liquid in a subohm tank, I get almost no custard taste on the inhale... straight guava. on the exhale it seems to be a 50/50 mix of guava/custard... with a lingering overall sweetness.

    I will, however, have to +1 your suggestions. I think those two tanks would be perfect for a creamy flavor. I don't think a subohm tank, although it would still taste nice, but the flavor profile would take away some of the creamy flavors.

    Different strokes for different folks i guess. I would never dream of vaping a creamy, milky, custardy type vape
    at low wattages or MTL (i do vape tobacco mtl). I really feel they first fully come into their own at high wattages and volume vaping.
    To get that thick, creamy sensation. Also the caramel notes first really come out (for me) at high wattages.

    Creamy and custardy vapes are volume vape classics und uber-popular among cloudy vapers.

    My comment is in regard to same style/size tanks... smaller tank = shorter chimney for example, so there will be some difference there.

    Except for the novelty effect, most rta's petform the same. I like a specific heatflux & will set them up accordingly.
    As imfallen stated chimney size would have a decided effect on setups.
    As for a specific flavor/atomizer combo, never even thought of it..

    I vape all across the board.. my standard is a .7 ohm dual coil build... just ends up that way. However, at the moment, it my two main vapes, I have a 2.0 dual coil in an orchid in my cloupor mini, and a .24 dual parallel in my Griffin 22. Since I am low on juice, they both have the exact same juice in them... a skittles flavor. I rebuilt the orchid at such a low build because I am going camping this weekend, and didn't want to have a low ohm heavy battery drain build. My goal... Leave Friday, camp come back Sunday.. three 18650's and no rebuilding for the duration. Camping can be a trial for us vapers.

    Anyways, back to the flavors.. since I have one juice in two vastly different setups, I can definately notice a difference. I even let my "freeloading vaper friend", you know, the one who doesn't want to spend money for a good setup, so he keeps borrowing yours, he tried both mods. He always goes for the subohm mod first, so he went for the Releaux... vaped it, loved it. Then I said.. hey, try this, as I handed him the Cloupor/orchid. He definately noticed a difference in the draw and vape quantity, but the first thing he said, was "you should put this juice in the other mod"... He didn't believe me at first when I told him it was the exact same juice in both mods. AT least I know I'm not the only one who notices the difference.

    So, I wouldn't say all atomizers taste the same, nor the juice saturation.. The differences in heat, air to vapor, coil build, saturation, chamber size, an quite a bit more change the juice slightly. The orchid tastes better in some flavors that the subohms just can't match. Even though I like the vanilla custard in both mods, I can definately tell the difference in taste between the two.
     
    Thanks for all yours compliment to my post n thanks for taking me as a new vapers because i can learn more from your comments..i got cherry bomber,ipv d2 and c fiber as my main mod but with the same flavor the taste being different..so i decide to got some experience from you guys who mybe expert with this and i think i got what i was looking for from imfallen..
