I know fish is just about out, but if you know any tell me. I doubt this is true, but i was on a website selling coral banded shrimp, and it said the minimum tank was a 1g (without fish). Is this true? if not, can tou list any other crabs or shrimp that would be active during the day and will be good in a 1g

The salinity level would be all over the place with evaporation. I don't think you should do anything with it. Maybe some ghost shrimp if you make it a freshwater tank.

I have a one gallon with two pom pom crabs. It only has a small chunk of rock (can't really fit anything else in there) so the crabs are visible all day. Every other day 1cup water changes work best

I've just never seen a one gallon tank with a lid that that didn't have holes or slits in it.
I'd go with the sexy shrimp.

Is this to have at your job or something just sitting on your desk or you want this for your house? If its job atleast go with a 5G so you can have something somewhat intersting
If its for your home I gotta ask WTF

ive neen interested all my life, just two years ago is when i got my first saltwater tank, my first tank ever was two goldfish in a 10g when i was 4-5, the fish died in a 29g, right before i got saltwater. The way i see it, its the closest thing i can get to a real ocean, im really into marine biology and stuff like that.
