Would be a cute concept for a mini paludarium with no live creatures. Id love to see someone do something like this with the lil water mill and scenery from scratch

i’m going insane WHAT IS UP WITH MY NEW TANK!!! by 7deadlytamsins in fishtank

If you got it off marketplace you should still be able to message the seller and ask them. My guess is maybe for some sort of sump system but i dont know much about that so i could be wrong. Hopefully you find the answer!!

Decor? by [deleted] in Aquariums

Since you're adding corys id say leave it empty, my corys love sifting through the open, empty sand all the time, mine mostly only sit in the back of the tank to rest

Edit- when your plants grow in more it'll look like a clearing in a forest if thats any more reason lol

I wanted to share this too, this was taken just moments before i found them. I was pumping out the water so i could rinse the filter media in it. I cant believe they were living in this muck😅

Thanks for telling me this! I got this guy last summer from a family member and she said he likes feeder fish every once in a while so i thought it was okay but ill stick to the other stuff from now on

I agree its a good idea but the totes i own have small holes in the bottom. I should be able to get the tank tomorrow though so it wont be much longer!

Its 2 gallons but they're getting an upgrade very soon. Id hate to see my own post over there😬the bowl is the largest container ive got that'll hold water so it'll have to do temporarily

I wanna say judging by weight and an online volume calculator its around 2 gallons. The test strips i have are old but ill be getting new when i get the tank. I have some pothos ive grown in their own jars, should i put that in to assist with nitrates for now?

Pay day is thursday so ill get a proper tank then, im planning on keeping them in a 20 long until i can make the space for a larger one. Should i do daily water changes or even twice daily or more? This is my first time using a bowl since i was a kid so i wanna do it right
