New Tank!!!

hey guys. i'm not exactly new 2 the fish world, since my dad is in LUV w/ them, but i felt like this was the best place 2 post this. my last tank, a 35 gal. hex, had a big leak in it, causing my dad and i 2 move all of the fish, live rock, coral, etc. 2 his tank, a 125 gal (i believe). but now, after like 5 months, i'm getting back in 2 the rythem w/ my salt water fish. as of last night, i currently own a 1 gal. tank (lol, yes i know it's small. feel free 2 laugh). right now, all it has in it is a red hermit crab and 2 snails... tho the name of 1 of them escapes me it's a kewl name lol. but ne ways, once i get a heater (hopefully soon), i'm gonna put some fish in. does ne1 have ne ideas? i was thinking of doing like a chromis breeding program and a small frag. business, but it may be hard 2 do w/ such a small tank (maybe i can convince him 2 let me use half of his 75 gal tank lol). i was hoping 2 use the purple chromises, but they're out of stock right now @ the nearest pet store lol. so maybe i'll have 2 submit 2 the reg. green/blue ones. and then 4 the frag. business, i was hoping 2 take some kenyan tree from my dad's 125 gal. and then maybe some of his zu polyps since they don't spread too fast, but can still make a decent profit. if u guys recommend ne fish types (small ones prefurably) or ne different types of frags that i can buy, please let me know. also, let me know if u have ne tips 4 me ;D i'm willing 2 try anything lol. i'll try 2 put some pics up 2 show u how my new tank is coming along as well. thanx guys

 

Nice work. Can't wait for some pics!

 

i wouldnt put anything besides maybe one coral and a few small inverts ina 1 gallon tank. Definatley not fish i would split ur dads or buy a bigger tank o and chromis are schooling fish they like odd numbers so atleast 3

 

0ne isnt an odd number????????? LOL;D;D

 

you need three for them to be happy and keep them in odd numbers

 

my dad said that as long as i keep the # of fish in there 2 a minimum (like 2 or 3 small chromises @ most, like drew3 said), then the tank should be fine. 4 the inverts, i may get an emerald grab or a pistol shrimp 4 it, since that's what my dad had in it b4 he gave the tank 2 me. but ne ways, yeah. that's basically my plan lol. i haven't put much thought in it yet since i just got in 2 working w/ it yesterday. but i'll def., try 2 put up some pics within the next few days

 

i would go even smaller than chromis's if your set on getting a fish maybbe look into some small goby's my personall favorite is the green clown goby

 

Drew I know that I was joking around. need to check this out. I think its awesome personelly.

i thought so i was just making sure =]

 

lol. i have a watchman goby (nameless- currently), a yellow goby (lil' pokchop III), a green goby (kermit II), and another type of goby (big bird) in other tanks, so i think i'm all set w/ them but hey, would a panda bear goby work? they;re so cute (u can tell i'm a girl lol) and i've been looking in2 them a bit... i'm just wondering if i could get like 1 or 2 of them if the chromises don't work out...
