Started a new 2.5g nano tank with floating aquascape!!!

[hexcolor reef]

Always looking to keep my interest peaking in this hobby. I like creating so I’m looking at this hobby ways to do things different while sticking to the basics.
this a DIY 2.5g which is a mimic of my other nano tanks, which are much larger.
going shopping for some new coral tomorrow looking to make this super colorful, pushing some limits maybe.
Running PhosGuard and carbon in this tank. Since I’ll be pushing limits here, ammonia maybe be my biggest issue.
Just sharing to see what’s the smallest some of you have gone and successful if still up and running

I have a .3 gallon pico tank. Got it at a coral show. Haven't set it up though.

I always want to do a tiny reef. But I think I'll just check in on this one from time to time and pretend it's mine. Keep up with your water changes op. I can't be bragging on an ugly tank.

I’d like to see that set up and running.
I’m attending reef-palooza, hopefully I win one

First water change today. I’m upgrading the filtration pump to a more compact and more GPH. Not getting much surface movement with the current one. I have an air pump that I can use for now.

I used this with filter floss in my kids pea puffer tank years back. It wasn't bad.

Should be fun

Potential parameter swings on that volume of water scares me though!
