Your Given A Tank

[MisssMarie]

You're given a 5 gallon tank, it has a hood, and that's it. What would you do with it? What would be your stocking plan? Heavily planted, not planted, medium planted? What plants? What theme? What color gravel and decorations? Just what would you do with one??

Personally, I would setup some good lighting, heavily plant it and do a shrimp tank, always fancied one

I'd probably go for a nice dark sand.

I wish I had one that wasn't acrylic so I could go nuts with a fry tank. But I like snake's idea.

 

[Man of fish]

Black sand, lightly planted, a betta, some shrimp or
White sand, medium- heavily planted, a betta and some shrimp.

 

[Cazgar]

Definitely sand, heavily planted & some shrimp

 

[MisssMarie]

I don't need two shrimp tanks.... Yet xD I plan on doing another one later this year!

A small school of celestial pearl danios.

This is what I would do with it
6 rasbora brigittae, some cherry shrimp and a Betta
5 to 6 galaxy rasboras, some cherry shrimp and a Betta
3 male endlers, some cherry shrimp and a betta

 

[MisssMarie]

Hmm... I'm thinking of a betta less tank this time

 

[smokeyjo]

I've got a 5 gallom set up with 15 endler fry and some cherry shrimp the endlers will be making the move to my big tank when they are big enough not to get eaten lol

Okay, then the same stocking that I suggested...... But minus the betta
