why does god test me so.... check back a few pages and rethink that one.
I'm sorry if I came off as rude, but there is a very nasty "if it fits then it has to be a good idea" train of thought going around here. Not just with nano's, but with big fish too (I'm seeing way too many people think they can fit humongous catfish in a "large" tank).
Nano tanks are cool, but tricky. To someone who just wants something nice to sit on a desk, a nano can be way too much work for a tank that size. I have created nano planted's that where way more work then a tank 50x in size.
The only reason I doubted shrimp is because they are sensitive creatures. Yes, they can thrive in a tank that size... but you have no room for error. Good luck with whatever you do. I will cast my vote for the 10g, that way you have more stuff to look at
If you have the filters it's just another $10 to get the tank.
ok well i have this desk tank set up its like 9x9x9 and just wondering what can i keep in it that would be cool...my betta died and i dont plan on getting another..i thought about a fiddler but im not sure..can you guys help me out please?
