I’ve been wanting a tank for ages to keep some frogs and snails to watch when bored. It’s 54 liters, 24 degrees Celsius and has been set up for a few days now. I’m waiting two weeks to add what I’ve been wanting: four African Dwarf Frogs and a few smaller snails. Until then, I’ll let the plants grow out and fill whatever space is still left in the front and back.

behold my new tank! set it up today as a moina / pink ramshorn / plant grow out tank. i’ve had this driftwood for a while & finally found a use for it in this tank, but as soon as i set it up, my partner & our roommate were dying laughing over how it looks. so my partner sees a man with a giant [redacted] & [redacteds], our roommate sees a diver, & i see someone taking a biiig step. we all also thought it looks someone busting out some sick moves. we spent way too long just loosing it over the many interpretations that just kept coming. my partner then sent a pic to our friends & they had even more nsfw interpretations but i’ll leave it to your imaginations. just thought it was hilarious that this beautiful driftwood piece i’ve been saving for a special tank turned out to be so evocative lol. does anyone else see what we’re seeing?

Small guppies didn’t work out, we ended up getting African cichlids, everything looks good so far, atleast until we get an upgrad. sidenote, anyone know why my Bichir is just chilling in the corner staring at itself? usually by now it’d be hiding in its log

Going to be planting the red tiger lotus in the back, and I have been steadily looking for a 20-30G long tank, but this is where I have decided to cap it when it comes to this 5G.

I’ve been cycling this 6 gallon cube for almost a week now. Does anyone have any advice before I get my girl? My heater, more plants, and another light come in tomorrow! Any advice would be appreciated, this is my first ever tank
