isaly Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) Waterbox mini peninsula 15—the perfect betta tank???? It's self contained and seems quite flexible in terms of filtration options. Put a small heater in the back, cheap led gooseneck light...room for a few other nano fish Can the flow rate be adjusted at the pump? I know it can be done a lot less expensively but it looks frikkin' awesome. Edited January 7, 2022 by isaly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Expectorating_Aubergine Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 With tanks that have a built in sump like that, I have found that you can use an air lift system instead of a mechanical pump. You get lots of water flow and aeration, with a very gentle flow. Also doesn't have the issues that a mechanical pump has (impellers, clogging, sucking up tiny critters and killing them). You can also put terrestrial plants in that sump area for actual water filtration. I have a similar tank to that one (it has a built in sump) and it works great for me. Some mechanical pumps have the ability to regulate the flow, but many don't. You can always add a sponge to the outflow, or you can buy a light dimmer and plug your pump into that.
