Freebie Tank

Someone left this little tank out in the lobby.  It had a plastic plant and an almost full container of fish food.  I guess it didn't go so well for them

Hmmmm.  The possibilities....

Update: well, the power supply to the filter failed after a coupe of months. The down side of an integrated system is that there is absolutely no way to replace the filter only. A single power supply served the filter and the light and is hard wire and encased in plastic.  Whatever make or model this is, I cannot say that I recommend it.

So the whole unit was discarded and I replaced is with an Eheim 4 gallon in glass.  More about that coming up.

2 Gallon tank profile: Betta tank

A Betta (a.k.a. Siamese fighting fish) might do best in 5 gallons of more, but my white female Betta seems happy in my two gallon glass bowl with a submersible filter and mini heater (gravel, rocks and various plants). She shares the tank with an unknown number of Malaysian trumpet snails.
