Randy's Tank Description

Agreed! You could potentially setup a little self run closed top nano. Throw a decent ATO and food doser in there and you could be gone for weeks or up to a month with the tank just running on its own accord. With advances in technology it’s very much feasible.

Here’s my 6 gallon that’s just a flower vase with a closed top. I barely do any maintenance and if it had an ATO & doser could go a month without touching it.

Thanks. I am thinking about what’s needed for an auto pilot tank. :)
