**1.5g Office Nano - Take Two**

[sapherion]

Hi All,

After the first 1g tank I had setup at work, one of my colleagues asked me to make him one for his desk as well. So I got busy.

Stats:

20cmx20cmx20xcm
Sand Substrate
Slate rocks
Anubias Nana & Philipino Java Fern
11W 6500K Incandescent screw in bulb - 6 hrs a day
Seachem Flourish & Excel twice a week

Please let me know what you think and excuse the slightly dark photos!

Cheers,

Brandon.

Nice tank!!

Man, those tanks are becoming the rage around the office eh? Before you know it, you will probably set up others in short time.

Just wondering if the Incadescent bulb was a typo or not? If not I'd highly recommend switching to a Screwin Compact Flourescent since Incadescents are nearly useless for plant growth.

Absolutely awesome scaping though!

Just read the packaging for the bulb. You are right, the bulb is a dayllight bulb "as a replacement for the standard incandescent bulbs".. works a treat though. I have it in my other tank and all the plants are thriving

I seen those bulbs at Walmart. They are a CF that looks similar to an incandescent. Nice tanks....

maybe add some pebbles to add texture to the sand? just my preference.

Looks Great. In fact you motivated me to break out an old 2.5g to set up as a planted Betta tank. Are you running any filtration?

 

[sapherion]

Hehe thanks everyone. Yes the tank is running a 100lph hang on filter with bio media, sponge and activated carbon. Works very well so far
