For Christmas I got one of these little tanks.

It is sitting on my desk right now at work, and only has fresh water in it.
The instructions suggested putting a drop of dish soap in there, but I have been mulling this idea over in my head, and didn't want to contaminate it with soap.

I know this is awful, But I really want to put something in there.

It comes with a little circulation motor, and a blue LED light.

I am really wanting to put some gravel in there and a piece of Tonga branch with some mushrooms or polyps on it. I have monitored the temp and the little motor keeps the temp at about 76 degrees all the time it is on.

Do you think it has a chance?

It holds about a cup of liquid, and I could do 30% water changes every 3 days.
I Really want salt at the office and they don't like fishbowls hooked up to the same strip the computers are on...

I friend of mine had a Mantis Shrimp hitch in on some LR years ago. He got it out of his tank and kept it in a 2 gallon tank for years. It lives in his fuge now.

You should not replace the fishes that it come with originally with anything else.... ;)

OK< so I took it apart to see how it works.
I will post some pics later.

Crabs are out.
I would never want anything motile in there... so Crabs are out.

I am thinking mushroom, or maybe a Majano anemone...

I will charge ahead and we'll see what happens.

Not yet. I am so slow getting things done this weekend.
I have to leave on a business trip on Tuesday and will be back on Friday, so it may be a bit.
