7 gallon minibow at 1 year

[GAD]

This tank has been up for one year this month, thought everyone might enjoy some pics. Check out Gils sight oc-creative.com/reef for some quality 7 gallon bows, really a fun and inexpensive (not really) little tank to set up a reef with.

First thing in my tank was this hitchhiker feather duster:

Close up of my porceline crab that Ive had for quite some time. he used to host an anemone but I traded that when it outgrew the tank, now he is everywhere filtering the current.

Same crab from a distance further:

A green digi from Ora that ive chopped up quite a few times:

And a frag off of a blue digi from ora that has grown like crazy:

Thats all for now...

pitch black feather duster... that's cool!
your crab looks like crap. i bet it's gonna molt soon. it's about time for a new clean shell. nice pics, can't wait to see more.

Here is a full tank shot as requested, I would've liked to clean it up a bit, but I kinda like the dirty look.

Specs:

-7 gallon AGA minibow

-Coralife 96w powerquad

-1 powersweep, a little over 100gph I think.

-1 HOB filter (no media, just for surface agitaion and some flow), forget what brand just a cheap-o.

-I do weekly water changes of 1 gallon. I used to use scripps but now i've been useing IO for the past 3-4 months.

-Never added anything to the water, figured the water changes would do that, until recently I started adding some B-ionic to get some better growth out of the stonies.

Inhabitants:

1 black and white clown, think its a saddleback?
1 porceline crab.
Mostly zoos and mushrooms everywhere, I find them all over the place when I clean the tank.
frogspawn
some digitata
candycane
featherdusters
lots of hitchhikers, including a mantis who ate a citron goby I once had.
probably some other stuff too, I just can't think of it right now.
(oh ya, those shaving brush plants pop up all over the tank also)

Marlooney: The crab just molted last night, Ill have to post a pic of him with his clean shell...

“IMPRESSIVE”

[GAD]

Thanks Drea, you want some corals? Got those zoo frags on the bottum or a piece of digi, let me know if you have some room or want anything.

[Drea]

yeah, I would like some of the digi, but I want to wait till I upgrade my tank. I have no room. I might do it this weekend if I have time.

[GAD]

Let me know if you need some help, ill be down most of the weekend.
