OceanTruth Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) I went from never winning anything to winning two contests in the last 6 months, I believe. I just won this UNS 16T. Its dimensions are 6.29” x 6.29” x 9.45”. It’s only 1.5 gallons, so I have no clue what to do with it. I wish I had some fish buds IRL I could just gift it to. Any ideas on what you would use this for? Never had a UNS tank before, but I’ve heard they’re really high quality. *Not my picture* Edited February 27, 2021 by OceanTruth Added line 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT_ Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I have this dream of running an extra tiny tank like that with no filter. nice chunk of wood in the middle or maybe a stone. Lots of plants and a light. handful of shrimp and maybe some snails. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn T Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Perfect shrimp tank! It would make a great little tank for cherry shrimp or another small variety of shrimp. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirsten Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Nice! I'd go for a really meticulously aquascaped nano tank, maybe with some dwarf shrimp. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toobit67 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 What Kirsten said... I think that would be sweet... Low cost.. minimal effort.. maximum enjoyment) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 All of the above and one guppy...Not for permanent. Hold the flamethrowers, I am going somewhere with this... This tank is actually too nice for what I did. I actually got a SMALLER tank, about a 6 inch rimless cube. Horrible little thing was marketed as a betta tank. I made a guppy photo studio out of it! You know how it is hard to get a good pic? Well I can put a guppy in there, add a ton of light, and get a super close up. And because the glass quality is fabulous, it looks way better than putting them in a dip and pour. But after I was done...well the tank wasn't meant to cycle and it isn't very pretty just sitting around. So I am thinking one water lettuce that I can lift out at will, 2 or 3 shrimp, and maybe one nerite. Then it can stay pretty and set up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anita Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 How about a nano-paludarium? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawn T Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 @Brandy What a fabulous idea! A mini photo studio for those who like to get nice shots of their fish. 🙂 @Anita That's a cool idea, too! I love those little natural-looking environments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
