my 1g diy project

exodons?

is that a puffer on Post #3?

Yeah, I pulled the GSP out of his tank in my bathroom, and put him in this tank to test the current. I wanted to see if 60x turnover was going to be too much to keep a fish in there. But oddly enough, the puffer seemed to like it.

As far as stock goes, I'm not sure yet. The options are:

Neons + plants
Saddleback loach + DW
Or pea puffers

Unfortunately no exos. Lol

15 neons in that tank will look like a 10000+ neon school

Hey you could have the most overfiltered tank in mfk history!

 

[bitteraspects]

I think 15 neons would be a bit much. Plus, I would need to rebuild the strainer on the overflow bulkhead fitting. Right now, the holes are way too big for neons.

Yeah, I guess its a little overfiltered. Lol.
1g tank, 20-30g wet/dry, 60gph return pump, and a 20gph refiltration system inside the sump. Lol.

ok nice, but why? why such a tiny tank? just for fun? or do you really have plans for a 1g

EDIT ok sorry i hadn't seen page 2!

pacu?

 

[bitteraspects]

RTCxTSN + an Arapima. Lol

Leg89: basically, I finished my other DIY projects, and got bored. Then I found this old 1g tank in my storage shed (used to house feeders) and figured "why the hell not". Hahaha.
Plus I still have a load of PVC and scrubbies from my last 2 wet/dry builds

Well I was thinking how small is a 1g?? Could you tell me the footprint?
