Waikiki aquarium has kept several species of frog, scorpion and lion fish in very small (2-10 gallon) tanks with great success.

Well then, I think I might just give it a try!

Thanks for the feedback!

This is my guy, he's not a super active fish by any means (unless he gets scared or startled), this is pretty much all he does when I'm at home. I dont see why a 20g wouldn't work, I'd just be concerned with water quality, but with regular water changes that shouldnt be a problem. Good luck on the hunt for one!

The 20 gallons for the competition is system water volume, not tank size. A 25 or 30 gallon tank could be used, as long as the total water volume of the system does not exceed 20 gallons (including skimmers, filters, sumps, fuges . . . ). Sand and rock will help decrease the total water volume.

Thanks for sharing your pic! So cute!

I don't know if this would be for the nano contest or not. Just looking at something for my office that's simple and different.

I asked, he came from Ocean City, so maybe start there? He's a great little guy, he doesn't do too much, just sits there most of the time, but he doesn't pick at anything, so great if you want a really colorful tank
