1 gallon pico reef

[purpfish]

This is my first attempt at a pico, the tank got here today, now waiting on live rock and sand, I’m planning on a rfa and some sexy shrimp. Tank came with a very blue light, pump, and media basket

I’m always amazed at what people can achieve in these small tanks! When my oldest son started a 1 1/2g ( he moved it to a 10g) that’s the exact livestock I suggested.

A dosing pump or just manual since it has a tight fitting lid

I went with cured dry rock instead cause I don’t want to deal with aiptasia

Don’t have a white light but this is with a orange filter
