What to do with 10l cube?

[daftwazzock]

So I purchased a nano cube from Aquael recently but ****** up on the size and got the 10l version instead of the 30l. Returning it will be a pain since it was shipped to me and I have to pay the return postsge.

I'm trying to figure out what I can do with this equipment. My original intent was to make a low maintenance freshwater planted tank while i get my Reefer set up, but I'm wondering if I can turn this into some kind of invert macro algae Pico tank?

I have a little five gallon tank with a tail spot Goby and a bunch of zoas. It’s pretty cool. You have to make sure you top off every day to keep Salinity stable. Every week, I do a water change using a pitcher.

Yes. I purchased it and set up as a second reef tank after about 4 months I converted to fresh. It is simple to care for no special lights or anything !

Is it too small for quarantine tank?

And feed them to the reef tank too... probably easier than setting up a saltwater macroalgae picocube
