5 gallon start up

[BriansGirl18]

Hello all. My 8 yo son has got just as invovled as i am in my 4 saltwater tanks. He has been asking for his own tank for a few months. So, i seen a nice little setup at my lfs the other day and picked

it up. Its a top fin retreat 5 gal aquarium. I think its going to be a real easy set up. We have thrown around some ideas but i thought i would share here as we go and get advice along the way. I'm trying to make it a floating reef tank. I'm not sure if its going to hold yet but i have "glued" the rocks to the tank today. Letting it cure hoping it holds. If it hold water tomorrow.

I myself am just a teenager but i think parent-child tanks are a stupendously beautiful way to bond and learn at the same time :)) Have fun

I've been thinking of doing the same thing to my topfin 5 gallon been kind of hesitant! Will be following along to see how it goes!

I just bought the same top fin tank! I still haven't stocked it... only live rock and pods
