2.5 Gallons - 20 Fish

[George Farmer]

This is my 30x20x20cm, 12 litre, 2.5 gal. I set it up originally for Tropica, to test out some new plants. Follow this link -Tropica - step-by-step nano aquarium

You can also see how I set it up in the July PFK.

These are Oryzias sp. 'Neon Green' from my brilliant LFS. They're fully grown at approx. 15mm.

Red nose shrimp. Pretty rare in the UK. Thanks to Aqua Essentials for supplying them.

Wow 15 mil, thats small.

That tank is so lush and green. Looks like a reinforrest with a sort of temple in the middle, looks awsome (AS AWAYS)

Amazing that a low grade shrimp still looks great. Nice tank.

Keep trying to persuade Ian to let me try a tiny tank like this, got a bookcase that's basically a big grid with squares in, each square is a 30cm cube...... got books n stuff in some and decorative stuff in some other suqares. I keep thinking a tiny little tank, probably not with any fish but just some pretty plants n maybe a shrimp or two, would love ace in there.
