Yes, you read that correctly; 1.2 gallons! Going to try an experiment and see if I can get this to work. I picked up this little tank at a rummage sale last summer and forgot about it until recently. Its all glass and measures 6" x 6" x 8" wide. Did the calculation and came up with 1.2 gallons. For light I am going to make a DIY unit from this metal box I picked up at the Restore. It measures 6" by 10" so its a pretty close fit. I plan to build a stand to hold the light over the tank. I have two dry rocks that fit and weigh just over a pound each so I will pick one of those two to use. Not sure yet, but leaning towards the one on the left. For heat I will order a betta heater to put under the gravel. For circulation I could probably get away with an airstone since there are no power heads small enough for this..are is there? Hmmm... maybe I could use one of those little water fountain pumps that come in those novelty desktop water fountains? Might give that a try.
