My 1g Pico Reef Tank Build

[AZ_Reefer]

Incredible! This is such a fun build!

It’s fun because it’s so small! I can’t wait to upgrade but this is such a fun hobby to be a part of

Everything is looking very happy! Got a new blue legged hermit crab and a astrea snail! Hope they acclimate well!

When the shrimp you have is done, you can look at sexy shrimp. They stay small. Tank looks really nice. Glad to see everything is going great.

Ya I was thinking about getting a couple of them afterwards for sure! Hopefully this one stays for a long time haha

Little update of my tank so far! The one gallon is doing very well! Everything is looking healthy and enjoying the life so far! Loving every second of it! Don’t know if I have more room for anything!

Nice work! I actually just had my MagTool 1g delivered yesterday! Getting back into it from a 30 gallon that went south when I got too busy with little kids...it was them or the tank and I decided the world had enough hooligans running around and I wasn't gonna add 2 to the mix.:rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Anyway, now that kids are grown, and societally productive, young adults I decided I had a some time to commit to SW again but wanted something for my work-from-home office...before anyone says "so lucky!" yes, I am blessed but I've WFH for the past 20+ years so way before covid and while it is very nice it also means that I'm always at work, I don't get to walk out of my workplace and forget about it until Monday or even the next morning...OK, unprovoked defensive rant over.

So, not to hijack your thread any more JP, just wanted to say your tank is looking awesome! I love that I found someone building the same little 1g and can't wait to watch both of ours grow as well as bounce ideas around with! I guess I should start my own little build thread too

No upgrades at all! I kept it the same and it’s been working great for me! Cycling didn’t take that long as it’s pretty small but it’s worth it!
