Vinnie's 5 gallon Nano


Alright, I'm in with a 5 gallon tank, Not sure on the lighting, I have a small light and hood for the tank, but also have a current 150W pendant with moonlights, brand new in the box, bit of an overkill for 5 gallons. I wanted to get a bigger tank to use the light, but I have this tank already.

I will get some pictures

Good luck on the build-off Vinnie. Can't wait to see pics.

So glad no one is twisting my arm to join in. My plate is too full at the moment.

Thanks Everyone, I will clean up the tank tomorrow and try and get some pictures, I think I will end up using the smaller PC lighting. Also not sure what livestock I will have.

I want it to be simple

This is the tank with the standard hood, I think 150 watts maybe over kill. LOL

I still need to clean it up and get water in it
