Second Tank

[cpsdad]

ok i already have a thriving 100L tank on the go, and now ive been given a small tank that was cluttering a colleagues shed.
i obviously wasnt going to turn down a free tank set up, and originally only planned it to be a quarantine tank. or maybe to provide a separate home for fry.
 
however, now ive cleaned up this tank and have it cycling i am having other ideas! 
Now its only 25L, but im wondering what options i have? Maybe i keep a coldwater tank? or do i simply transfer some from my larger tank into here? 
 
anyone have any suggestions of possible inhabitants?? or care to share what they would do? 
 
thanks guys

Can I say a betta?

I think it would be much too small for anything cold water.

 

[cpsdad]

thats definitely something thats entered my mind!
i know the size will really dictate whats possible, so i turned to you guys for some inspiration!

Have to agree, small tank. Betta, shrimp, or snails.

 

[cpsdad]

shrimp sounds good. will also look into that
thanks

Well if you don't mind me posting a pic to show you what I did with my aquanano 30 (23 litres) for my betta, so you can see what can be achieved with that sized tank.

I have two vallis, amazon sword and crypts with a floating anubia.

 

[cpsdad]

that looks great!
and you just have the betta in there?

You could always try a betta with shrimp. Some bettas do well with shrimp and others get a tasty snack

 

[Shelster]

Yes I have just the betta, he wouldn't mix well with anything else, like Greenmumma has said, so e bettas do well with shrimp

 

[cpsdad]

i like the sound of that, thanks guys 
i think thats the way forward!

 

[Shelster]

I'll admit it I'm a sucker for tank pics!!!!! plus I always like to see how people set up their tanks, that's how I get ideas
