Unfortunately one of the cheapo hobs from China has leaked on one of the nano tanks! That's what I get for buying cheap!

Replacements ordered, aquael mini's; just a heads up though for anyone that purchased similar to mine. Worked great for a month, but I think the seal has gone midway up

i would just hide a small sponge w/ a powerhead in for a mini filter

What should acrylic thickness be? The tank will be 24 x 10 x 14, so I was thinking 1/4".

Damn! I bought the same one. Will arrive in a few weeks. I actually like the look and size of it. Wasn't too concerned saving the $10. I guess I'll see how it works and replace if necessary

That's why I'm doing a little bit bigger tank so I can just get an aquaclear.

Yeah they're my favourite but probably too big for a 5 gal. There's a small tetra brand filter if I can find it somewhere...

They make canister filters for small tanks.

Not aquaclear. I meant that there are canisters for aquariums that size.

I'm guessing those are probably over $50 though. Any ones you recommend to look into?

I don't have experience with this one, but I've seen a couple good reviews.

i've used the bigger aquael hob's and can attest to their quality. Also one piece plastic molded, so they don't leak
