Yeah, I know it's an ambitious description, but here goes:
I found this little stretched-hex tank in the trash today. It had dirt in it, must've been used for plants. The front 3 panels are clear glass, the back 3 are mirrored. I couldn't let it go to waste! I put gravel, a rock, a plant (foxwort) 2 pairs of feeder guppies, and a snail.
There's no filtration so far, as the bio load is really low. It holds about 1/2 gallon, and the plant should produce enough O2 for the fishies. I'll do about an 8oz water change at a time, it should work out. The smallest nano I have ever tried!
Very low-tech, but I can add a tiny bubble filter if needed.
It's about 12' wide, by 6" front to back.

The feeders are temp. if anyone has an idea what other fish, even just one I can keep in there, let me know.

I'm just treading time with my 18g nano. When I find a good used 30g cube, I can expand again and buy more frags!!!!
Right now I have no more room. It's maturing on it's own!

Someone needs to tuck their ovaries back in and take off their skirt. Didn't you get the memo? FW is so 5 minutes ago, especially guppies. "Hi, I'm a food." Go to home depot and get one of those mini halogen lights and start a 1/2 gallon sps reef $$.
