Hi all,
Since living in a studio, I have limited space in my room. I wanted to have another tank in addition to my 5g tank. While at Ikea, I saw this vase that would be perfect for the corner of my room. I want to show you all my work in progress pictures. Any suggestions on how to hide to airline tubes in a clever way? Right now I have 6 white cloud minnows and don't plan on adding.

Yes, the gundamn is protecting my fish. :) The filter is hiding behind the big rock.
 
Ummmm for the airline situation.... i would say use plant life.... fake or real.... either or don't matter. As the others have asked.... do you have a filter?

Yes, I'm using the penn plax smallworld filter. I have little more than 3g of water right now.

I want to have real plant. Can you recommend me a plant to hang around the tube that floats?
