Rita Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Hi everyone! So I just wanted to share my second tank... it was originally supposed to be a quarantine/hospital tank but it quickly became a real tank. Also, I had ordered some water wisteria and red root floaters from etsy that came ripe with "pest" snails. I have pond snail babies, ramshorn babies, and I just adopted 3 mystery snail babies from a friend of mine... so it has now become a snail tank lol. I really wanted a lid on the tank due to the mystery snails but wanted good gas exchange for the floating plants, so I decided to try a grate lid made for reptiles with some modifications. I'm thinking of maybe adding some cherry shrimp once my plants fill in a bit more... any suggestions on what type of fish I should add in this 10 gallon?

kammaroon Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 I did that and now I have 4 tanks. I keep having thoughts on what to do with a fifth tank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Oh no...MTS!! My 2nd tank was also a 10 gallon. But once I got the 20L, the 10 became a quarantine tank. I'd love another tank (a 30 breeder) but definitely do not have the room or the electrical outlets. ☹ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian P Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Fish keeping is a slippery slope. I was happy with a 10g until I wasn’t. Then happy with a 29g until I wasn’t. Now I have 4 tanks with at least two more in the plans. It’s a hobby, make sure it stays fun! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to get another power strip now just to set up the actual quarantine tank! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alison Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 There are lots of great nano fish. Chili rasboras are super cool so are the green rasboras. You can do a few pairs of clown killies if you have a secure lid (they are jumpers). Celestial pearl danios are stunning as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
