A small one I started a few months ago, using some TEMU products. 2 x roughly 6 - 7 inches cubes and a usb LED light. Some TEMU's aquarium mini-products failed (the pumps, etc.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, I have from Petco a blue male veiltail betta fish<\/strong> (about two have died prior) which survived our recent two week Eurotrip. And a neon tetra<\/strong> (had 4 before, all died out, along with some shrimps). I have a bendable moss in the betta tank. The other tank I used for filtration, so I will have more plants in that other one. Currently has two (from Petco): small Anubias Nana, Java Fern \"Windelov\"<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So I currently run the two tanks on a timer for light and a mini water pump to circulate water between the tanks. I just bought a 50W water heater yesterday from Petco.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Update 3\/16\/2026:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Due to dead fish and algae bloom, I've reset everything for the freshwater tank after following some<\/a> youtubers<\/a> on aquascaping. To date, I have this setup over a few months ago with RODI: I plan to do some simple aquascaping learning, raising something as simple as shrimps and experiment on plant growing. I brought some rocks from the sea sides months ago, but am bad at landscaping. It's tempting to buy dragon stones and drift woods online, but I feel guilty buying something I could just pick out from the wild myself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A small one I started a few months ago, using some TEMU products. 2 x roughly 6 - 7 inches cubes and a usb LED light.
