So yeah, my wife asked me to setup another fish tank today for the kiddo's room. She has been supportive of my latest venture into the aquatic world (though she still eyes my 20gal with suspicion because it once got some water on our wood floor and discoloured it..) but I was pretty shocked when she asked me tonight to set up a small tank in the kid's room for aesthetics/white noise. So, now I need to figure out a tank and here is my list so far:
1) Small 1-5gal
2) LED Light w/ timer, "low" lighting. Possibly open top
3) Easy to care for, slow growing plants
4) Filter/powerhead setup in a way that creates a PLEASANT "waterfall" noise. Little to no humming/other sounds
5) Sturdy stand/location to place tank so it doesn't get knocked over/cords don't get pulled.
6) Fauna is absolutely last on this list because I don't really care; I'll find something interesting to live in there once the rest is figured out.
Hopefully I'll be able to work on my bike some tomorrow and then research this more.
