i have been keeping reefs for some time now and i want to try something a lil diffrent i have a spare 7gal aga bow front i was wondering if there is any octo good for this sized tank. and if so where can i pick up some good information on habitat settings, tempature, ligthing, aquascape, and NO i dont want something like a blue ring or a mimic just a dwarf maybe something colorful if possible. im not worried about having good water quality. thanks in advance.

personally id say that 7 is too small but i guess a pygmy species might do as long as you have a good filter.

what do you mean about 'im not worried about having good water quality'?

here is a checklist for all common parameters and equipment
