    Paludarium macro tank all the cat-ing way! Drill a box on one side for a HOB filter, on the other side have a LOT of sand and grow fiddler crabs and mangroves!

    Do a fuge DT lots of mangroves all types of macros and fill it inverts and other dwarf seahorse to the fuge lol

    Won't be connected to main just it all by its self.

    Its cheap because you don't need filter don't need flow don't mess lots of light and eventually pods will be plenty full that you don't news to feed.

    Planted tank all the way!! Not sure about cichlid though they seem to be rough on plants/wrong PH.

    Freshwater is booooring. +1 for selling it to get rid of expensive temptation. Or modify it to be a peppermint shrimp factory.
