hey guys, I thought it would be nice to start a thread about small tanks.

So post your pictures and tell us the stats.

I have a 25l (6gal) sitting on my desk and I am still undecided about what to do with it.



sand substrate, black background, 1 plastic plant (to be replaced with real), 2 pieces of bogwood and a rock.

the three so far are stunning, i have said it before and ill say it again GAZ that tank is so beautiful i would leave it empty lol, that kinds defeats the object tho hey- but it really does look that good
same goes for you too russ, i saw the work you put into putting that tank in that space and its certainly paid off,
ficious, the tank def looks better without the hood smile.gif

thanks shelaghfishface, I need to get some low light plants for this, its only got 1 small bulb in the hood.

Ficious, I'll let you know when I get fish, its just sitting empty at the minute (cycling) IMO it looks so much nicer with sand than it does with gravel.

Ideally I would like to change my big tank over but it would cause too much stress to the fish

pets at home, complete with rena filter and heater for about £50-£60 I think.


I would like to go for a DP for the tank but I dont have snails to keep their teeth down.

I have just introduced live plants to my main tank so hopefully i've got a few eggs in there somewhere wink.gif
