FrozenFins Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 (edited) Just got the fluval spec 5 gallon, i plan to do a monte carlo carpet, some amazon frogbit and some dragon stone at the center of the tank. I will be stocking this with a betta (i am on the looks for an all white one). Anyways, I have two places/positions in mind and I cant figure out which one I like, so I thought "lets let the nerms decide". Both places are on my desk.

Struggle Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I like #2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaitieG Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I'd vote for #2 as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 #2. leaves you the most room to use your desk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tolstoy21 Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I vote for a much bigger tank on that desk, and then a second desk for you. If not that, then #2. If you're right-handed, having that tank on the right of you might drive you nuts if you have to also work at the desk. Plus, the view of #2 will be better (unless it has the potential of being blocked by a monitor or something). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 #2. You see more of the viewing pane that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streetwise Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I have had so much fun with my symmetrical windowsill tanks. The tech and substrate are symmetrical, but the hardscape, plants, and livestock are just similar. They bookend my home workspace, which is so relaxing. I really recommend this configuration.

FishyThoughts Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I’d say #2, seems like the best viewing angle. And I’d probably get some blackout window tint to put on the side of the tank against the wall. Should really help make a white betta stand out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
