Shrimp, Snails, plants or anything?

[Miyavp]

I found this super bity desk fishtank on amazon. Needless to say this is no home for any fish. But I was wondering on tank size for shrimp or snails? Or would plants be the only home this micro tank could possibly home? Its just too darn cute

Here's some perspective for you. It will hold 4-12oz sodas. It doesn't even hold a half gallon. You could get a 10g for that price. Too much money with no reward in my eyes.

I have to agree. It may seem like a good idea, but with so little water you'll probably end up killing whatever you put in there due to toxins building up so fast. Is there any kind of filtration? "Little" may be cute for some things, but is usually a bad idea for aquariums.

It's cute and going on your work desk, I get it. Throw in a low light anubias nana ($6 at petsmart) in there and use a little liquid fertilizer.

You could probably add one or two snails, maybe even a few ghost shrimp. It would look cute with anubias, and that's easy to care for.

It don't hold even a gallon of water. I would say not worth it, could find something that holds a bit more water that still fits on the desk. Could maybe stick a few plants in there and a snail if that.

A snail and some nice moss would be cool.
