As my 14G Not a Cube is nearing 9th month since it has been up, I feel like I am needing to mess with the tank less and less, to the point where it is almost on autopilot. it is quite filled up with growing corals, and only needs daily feeding and weekly water change. this makes me feel an emptiness, the kind of emptiness that can only be filled up with the setting up of a new tank thus marks the beginning of my Desktop garden.
for the tank I have chosen the YiDing AIO series 6 gallon crystal tank. equipped with pathetically small back chambers with an equally pathetic return pump, this tank definitely needed some work.
beautiful glass work but terrible design in the back
tiny chambers with a 300l/h pump that is used in their smaller tanks too??? what were they thinking :mad:
the spot this tank is going is actually where I had a smaller of the same series tank (hence me knowing they used the same pump...) as a planted betta tank beside my computer monitor and the 14G Not a Cube. the betta tank did not work out for a couple of reasons: 1. I cannot for my life keep plants growing well without algae city, 2. i taught my bettas to jump for food, and they liked jumping a little too much...
I wanted this tank setup to be as perfect as I can make it so I took my time and planned out a bunch of modifications.
