Bk's 2.5g Experiment

[powerkit]

The floating plants are Frogbit, great nutrient hogs.


I just noticed you answered that, thank you, I am on a quest to find some for my livebearer tank.

Man, that is a very awesome tank! I wish I could get my 2.5g to look like yours.

Btw, whats your substrate?

its black sand. Forgot the exact brand :lipssealedsmilie:

Bk, can you tell me how you have the filter/light arranged for your 2.5? I have the same tank and it came with a glass canopy, but the problem is that the canopy covers the entire top of the tank and doesn't allow space for any wires/tubing/hob filters to lead out of the tank. Are you using the canopy or is it open-top?

Heres the ghetto setup...
The original versa top glass was cut on the left side for the filter and additional scraps of the hinge was added around the back glass..

The ghetto lighting....

And the ghetto reflector (old printer manual lol.. hey its glossy!!)

Dude, that is totally some ghetto lighting.

Can't believe you didn't even spring for the $6 clip on reflector from Home Depot

I just took 2 2.5 tanks and put them side by side and put a 24" light strip. over the top of both . Please forgive my bad photography.
