This will be my first progress journal. I just got back from Target where I purchased a small glass bowl. I guess its volume at around a pint maybe. I am using Seachem Flourite as a substrate and just plain tap water. No ferts no co2 just 13 watts of compact flourescent and daily water changes for a week or so then I will take it down. I think I will give it an hour or 2 of the light as it is small and it will get light from two other tanks near it. I planted it with HC and HM with gust a sprig of dwarf hairgrass. The rocks came from outside my apartment. Overall cost just the glass, $4. I think it was worth it. I might put a ghost shrimp or just a single guppy fry in it who knows.

Pearling!

That is a regular bic, no trick photography.
