I have an extra 2.5g tank that I just got done using for my Triops, it has a heater and filter and all that... I'll be keeping it on a windowsill where it will get direct sunlight. I know there's not much you can do with a tank this small but what are some idea's I could use it for? I was thinking maybe breed some very nice guppies or bettas. What do you guys think I should do? Feel free to be creative :grinno:

maybe a frog. i feel like if you put it on a windowsill it will have algae growing all over it in no time.

I know, I already have one in this window sill that will be next to it, it's a moss scape with Red Ramshorn Snails, Oto's, and Sparkling Gourami's. Algae growth is not too bad, probably because I'm running CO2.
 
-Betta
-a single Dario dario
-micro rasboras
-shrimp
-eye spot gouramis
 
Scratch the Heater and Put some plants (Maybe the Bamboo stalks, really not bamboo) Have a nice school of 6 Galaxy rasboras.
 
regardless of what fish you'd put into it (I'd keep it simple, go with a betta), I would make it a planted tank . . . take advantage of that natural sunlight, and should also help with algae problems . . .
 
Sump for a 5 gallon! :headbang2
