Hey all,
So I am thinking of a small Walstad betta tank. I have been trying to find a tank that caught my eye that would fit in my office... and be small enough to move to it when I am back in the office. I wanted something unique, but still obviously a tank.
So, I am looking at this combination:
UP AQUA UA-001B ultra white Fluorescent Blue Silicone Aquarium
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IJQMWMU/ref=crt_ewc_img_dp_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER
Fluval Mini Power Compact Lamp - 13W
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004QSV8X...TF8&colid=1A8YAEX4EUK1H&coliid=I3LIQE3V4WN80Z
So the tank looks to be about 2.4 gallons. So my question is two part:
1. Would this be a good first attempt at a true Walstad tank? No filter, no heater (my home and office varies 70-80 degrees), no pump. True NPT.
2. Would this be ethically big enough for a betta?
3. While it could be a failure, would it be big enough for a betta with spaces for shrimp (RCS) to hide?
Thanks all!
