Hey folks..
I decided to set up 2 2 gallon tanks..
they are both 12x6.5x6.5 inches...small right?!
They will be next to each other, with a 2ft 50/50 Acitinic/daylight light suspended over them (still gotta work out how im gunna do that....)
Anyway..
I wanted a shrimp. 2 hermits, 2 astrea snails in them...is it possible to have any fish in them apart from Neon Gobies? Neon Gobies are practicaly unheard of here..very rare...
Thanks for any replys,
James

Dont put a seahorse in that size tank unless it is a dwarf or pixie sea horse. No seahorses dont need live food 3 times a day. You can feed them frozen mysis and frozen brine.

Please don't put any fish in a tank that small. But I think that's a great idea you have putting the two tanks next to each other. You can still have lots of interesting life in there. Let us know how your setup works out when you get it going. I'd also be interested in seeing some pics.

A small shrimp (cleaner or peppermint), some small crabs, I wouldn't discount the neon goby; that's perhaps the only fish I would put in that tank if I were doing it. But this isn't my tank, it's yours to do whatever you want with it. That's my favorite thing about this hobby, being as creative as possible with my tank.

Hi guys..
Have changed my mind slightly, i would like a fish in the tank, and would not like to put one in a small tank like this if it "might" work..must be sure..have to consider the fish..
Please see here about my new plans...
Thanks again,
James
