I had a spare 2.5gal laying around so i figured i'd give my betta a new home(he was in a 1gal. bowl). Its looks really cool, so i thought i should share. Occupants include 1 male betta, 1 otto, 1 anubia nana, some corkscrew val, and a few "petite anubias nana"<-------very cool looking plant.

Nice..I like the layout....it's a good start. Just wait until the plants fills in.:cool:
 
What's your opinion of the "petite nana?" I've got some on order, waiting for it to show...
 
I just recently bought a 2.5 gallon and I was planning to do something almost identical to you! I had the black sand, was planning a betta and some shrimp! For lighting I have an Azoo 7 watt CF. It puts out a good amount of light.

BTW, where did you get that mini piece of driftwood? That is so cool! I would go with a wellaby wood (like one I have in my 10) but it constantly stains the water so I kinda gave up on getting a new one.

THE TANK LOOKS GREAT

the light is a 13 watt cf desk light with a gooseneck thing, so if i think the light is too strong i just raise it abit. It seems to be more than sufficient:D The wood was a piece of driftwood from the LFS, it cost me a whole 3 bucks. i soaked it in boiling water for a day and havent had any problems with leaching tanins.And for the petite nana, well it looks just like a anubias nana, but mini sized. Each clump is probably the size of a half dollar, the leafs are probably the size of half a penny. They were very expensive, but quite unique, so i cant complain.
 
UPDATE:
My dam* amano shrimp was dead this mourning. ohh, that pisses me off. the little bugger wasn't cheap. oh well, at least my betta is as happy as can be, he has a huge bubble nest going.:cool:
 
That looks great! Is that one of those little 2.5g Perfecto tanks? I have one of those lying around too... hmm. :)

I love the mini-anubias. I'll have to look for those locally.
