![]() I want to keep this fairly small and simple as I need to bring water from home as it is. Our school water is not fish friendly. I learned that in 2011. So cleaning needs to be minimal as I can only dump water in the school drain and carry premixed water from home. As cool as fish would be they would add too much to a bioload.
Shrimp would be neat but I have never had success with them other than in my freshwater systems. It would be great if I could find a sealed system so evaporation would be very minimal. And really the light only needs to be strong enough to see into the tank. I have heard of people keeping hermits in bowls like a betta bowl but I don't think that is fair, nor would the hermits live for very long. My gosh I sound like a newb. Ive been in the hobby a long time and I just want opinions LOL. |

![]() i think an IM nuvo 8 would be perfect. ive got one. its awesome. a pre-mixed bucket of salt water will do at least a month worth of water changes. keep a bucket of RO for top ups. sounds like a good idea though. just choose your crabs wisely. i started with a few zebra hermits in mine. kinda ended up being survival of the fittest. ive only got one left. he killed the others, and pretty much every snail ive ever had in there. looks like an empty shell bone yard in my tank. i also have two scarlet hermits. they are awesome. just go about their business, and dont bother anything else.
