Hopefully the final.resting place for the tiny tank. On top of the fish cubby.
Really debating the internal filter...
As soon as i do a wc one day on my main tank this tank will start.
Next is light hanger.

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

Ex nay the internal filter. Im going with a 400gph overflow to a sump. We will see about the drilling lol!
Need the overflow kit and drill bit. Template too.
Gonna go with a jaebo slw 5 pump for flow. Lol.
Skimmer idk... sump...idk.i have a 50b sump and 29g tall sump in my garage.
We will see.
Pico ive never done so idk where im going with this. Lol

I used rock and water from my display.
Thoughts on animals? Its tiny. Lol.
High light. Med flow prob. I might try and drill it and add overflow and sump or i might try and just add powerhead and skimmer we will see.

Ive topped this tank off 1 time. Thats about it. Lol. Currently growing micro critters and sponge...i still dont know what im going to do with this. Im thinking hob filter or a hob skimmer and a slw-5 pump but im open to suggestions. Its a 3g

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

This tank is approaching its day or reckoning soon. Lol. Needs $. Lol and work but I think will be a fun little tank.

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

Finally ordered a jaebo slw5 and an ehiem liberty 75 to replace the in tank filter! Whoops! Will mount the lights and get it going officially as a pico soon as they arrive and are installed
D

 

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

Only the tiniest of animals will go in this tank. Please suggest.
Lol
...sexy shrimp. Nano blends and gobies. Like clown gobies.
Idk what else. Lol.

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

This little jobber came in today. Just need the filter and ill mount lights and put em on a timer.

i never ran a sw tank under 50g. No advice on animals. Sorry. Looks great!

 

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

Well the ehiem liberty 75 was too big. Noisey too. So I went back to this. Gonna paint the background black I think on this little guy.
Than just need the lights and timer and I can start stocking. Should be nice and cheap and a change of pace from the 100g cfi tank.

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

The 3gal got the smallest clown goby you ever did see and a basslet fish.
D

 

[monkeyCmonkeyDo]

Both fish died. The tank is too hot and the flow too much i think.
:(
I tend to not do too well in this hobby.
Might upgrade it to a 10g and move it. Or change the flow pump for another xs in tank filter and put a heat pad style heater under it.
I.could always do inverts and no fish as well I guess.
Kinda sucks on this tank so I'm not doing much with it currently other than letting it run
