Changed the whole experience for me, and just made the hobby much more interesting for me. Loved it!

    The only "designer" nano tank that I've used and liked, and would recommend for someone who just wants a cute simple 5 gallon for a betta and some low maintenance plants is the marineland portrait 5 gallon aquarium. The built in filter and light is sufficient for the aforementioned setup and only requires a heater to be added; I like the pet supplies plus heater for this. Add some fluval stratum, a piece of dragonstone or driftwood, some plants and you're good to go. Of course there are better lights and filters and everything when you do it custom, but for a tank for a desk or similar situation it is a good option!

    If you don’t like the sponge filter taking up room on the substrate you could always buy the sponge filter that has suction cups that stick to the back of the tank I run one in my 6 gallon betta tank and I lost no space in planting and hardscaping and plus the filtration is great and my betta buddy jewel loves it. Just for anyone that wants a sponge filter but don’t want it on the ground in the background!

    This week, I found a sale on 5-gallon kits at Petsmart for $30 each: tank, filter, light. I nabbed 2 of them. I have extra heaters. Can't beat a price like that! 5 gallon is the perfect tank for a shrimp colony, small fish, betta and a quarantine/hospital tank. I may not use the filter that came with each tank, but you need spare filters if you have multiple tanks. I broke down a leaky 29 gallon into a 20 gallon and 2 5 gallons; perfect for my shrimp, endlers, guppies and snails. And plants!

    Love the Sicce Micron! I put one in the 10 gallon betta tank I set up for my housemate, and have the Micron Nano in one of my 5 gallon tanks. One caveat though, at least that I've noticed: because it's a motor running inside the tank, it does add warmth in a 5 gallon. Watch the temperature and adjust your heater accordingly, especially if the tank is in a warm room, has lighting geared to medium or high-light plants, or is tightly covered.

    I use the Fluval Nano 3.0 on my 5 gallon and it works great. Bought it new for $75. It dims and it's fully programmable. Just thought I'd throw that out there since you said a dimming one would cost $200+. I've also been able to grow pretty high-light demanding plants such as Ludwigia Pantanal Amd AR Mini with it.

    My first fish were two bettas gifted to me by someone who just couldn't be bothered any more. They were both in a tank that was not even a full gallon (about 0.8 gallons), with a divider. There was some substrate, but nothing else in the tank. These fish were kept like this for an entire year. I didn't know anything about owning fish, but I was quite sure that was an unsatisfactory situation, so I immediately went and bought some one gallon tanks so they could each have their own space with at least a little bit of decoration. I would then graduate them to 2.5 gallon tanks, and finally 10 gallon tanks.
    So now I have some 1 and 2.5 gallon tanks sitting around unused. The 1 gallon tanks have proved useful for highly temporary purposes like epsom salt baths and for quarantining and medicating a fish for a spell, but I have so many tanks that I would like to do something more with them. You start here with 5 gallon tanks, but is there anything that can be done with even smaller tanks, other then keeping them handy as temporary holding tanks when needed?

    We don't have these great kids like they do in America you can order them online but you typically I just get a glass aquarium that has curves it's a nice good solid chunk of glass it's not really easy to break

    Putting your light on a smart plugin with a schedule is also a great way of standardizing how many hours your tank gets over the course of a day.

    I have 2 5.5g tanks that each house 1 male betta. I use Tetra HOB filters for them and have good luck. I also have 20 something Ember tetras in quarantine for my 29g. I love the 5.5g tank size.

    if you ask me the worst thing about any tank below ten gallons is a lid... They just straight up don't make lids for most sizes that small. And if they do they are legit a pane of glass with a handle (which good luck getting an airtube in or a filter)

    Top Fin makes some great five-gallon kits! I got the five-gallon dazzle set and it has the perfect filter for a betta. My fish swims all around and has no problems with no adjustments. However, it didn't come with a heater or a thermometer, but you can pick the sets up at PetSmart on sale for a great price.

    One thing about these small tanks is if it comes with a filter that goes inside the tank it creates alot of heat. My top fin 5 gallon aquarium came with one of these filters and the temp in the tank is 85 degrees.. which of course sets which type of fish I can put in it.

    I just listened to Feed the Wolf 🐺 for the first time...nothing happened. I was so excited for my world 🌎 to change and nothing happened 😭. Anyway I love the way you and your wife are so excited for this hobby. I wish my wife was I to martial arts so that she could be in my videos. Anyway great video and now I'm thinking about getting a 5 gallon aquarium and ember tetras. Going to get the moss bridge and make a river out of gravel just like show in the video. Thanks

    I'm planning on doing a volcano theme for my new Betta when I get him. DEFINITELY going to cycle, use a sponge filter for filtration and a python hose for ease of water changes, I'm not losing another buddy!
