20L filtration

[Ahogue21]

Been in the hobby about 8 months now 2nd tank is a biocube 32 that's up and running great reason for the smaller tanks is will be moving soon and not going to set up anything big......But the itch for another tank is persistent right now and thinking a 20L will be for some frags and a fish or 2 choice I'm debating on is filtration

1. Just pick up a hob filter and run that setup no plans for a skimmer as I don't plan on getting to carried away with fish

2 build my own aio setup yeah it take up real estate but not to concerned + side is heater is hiden and it's a nice little diy project

Just curious on people's thoughts also interested in budget friendly lighting kinda debating orbit current setup but open to hearing other thoughts

Def build waht sounds the most fun.

The orbit will be fine. I'd look at the sbreeflight sprite or nano.

The older orbit no lens is underpowered.
The new lensed one Is a bit too focused so you may have spread probs depending on the dimensions of the tank and aquascape.

Thinking I may go bare bottom and have frags ext on one end and put all the rock on the other for the fish and maybe a shrimp

Will check those lights out as well
