3 Gallon stock?

[umramgirl86]

If I started a 3 gallon pico reef, what could I stock it with? I know my options are limited with fish if I could get any at all, but if you were stocking a 3 gallon, what would you put in it? (Shrimp, snails, starfish, gobies, etc.????) Any ideas are welcome

I would do a 3-4 sexy shrimp, a couple banded trochus snails, several zoas, couple ricordia, maybe some star polyps. And that would be about it.

That sounds like a good stock list. I think another option might be a Pom Pom crab. What do you think?

Fish will most likely not do well in a tank with such a small water volume. Inverts will be the way to go. And they are fun! I have a few hermits, snails, and an emerald crab in my 5 gal pico and I love watching them. . They are just a interesting as fish, IMO.
