Pbalz18ka Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Just started a new 3 gallon reef always have had large salt fish only tanks curious if three small soft corals too much for this small tank Link to comment
Jackal_Knight Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Which soft coral? You should be fine with what ever coral you put in it. If its a fast growing type you'll just have to keep it trimmed Link to comment
Pbalz18ka Posted May 30, 2015 Author Share Posted May 30, 2015 Was going to stick with leather or polyps but a friend gave me a xanthy hand is what called it and was giving that a try cause it was free put an emerald and a very small clown with a 8 bulb led and a small power head Sorry is a waving hand coral Link to comment
SantaMonica Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Welcome to NR. A nice pico-zoa-garden would be really neat. Link to comment
Jackal_Knight Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Sounds fine, but take the clown out, a 3 gallon is not recommend for fish, but a small goby would be a better option Link to comment
AquaJern Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Most soft corals should be good. As others mentioned I'd skip the clown, perhaps a watchman and pistol shrimp combo could be long lasting entertainment. As to coral make sure to stay away from the aggressive leather species as the close courtiers may not fair well for your other choices, but over all any soft coral should do. If it grows fast like xenia just trim and give away or sell. Link to comment
Amy Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I have a 3 gal pico and a green clown goby. He is quite the character, love him to bits. There is also the Yellow Clown Goby too. Just put one in though. Link to comment
