I'm setting up a tank on my desk at my new job, and thought it would be fun to make a thread about it.
I went with the Hygger Horizon 8 gallon kit, and have the tank now. I also won a bid on a stunning betta from Thailand, so he gets to live in it! He has not yet arrived.
I have 18 watts and only 6 gallons of water space. I also have a dimmer switch, so I could lower the lighting...
I've only ever done low-light before, so this is new. I am going plant shopping tomorrow - I relocated to Nashville so it's a new adventure. Hopefully I will find some driftwood too.
I'm thinking java moss on the rock wall, and anubias and java ferns... but I probably have more options with this light level.
Here are some pics of the fish (Rory), the tank (light can also be set to no-white or just-white lights), and the filter output for a slower current.
