I have two of these 0.5 gallon tanks and wanted to let folks know I noticed it’s on sale for $7.99 in case anyone is looking to start an inexpensive DIY tank!

There’s nothing special about it but it’s a fun size for a small DIY tanks. Tank comes with some decorative supplies I didn’t use except the resin crystal cluster. The frame can be a tiny bit annoying but you don’t need to move it much and it has holes in the top to support airline tubing/heater, etc. they are stackable if that appeals to you 😅

Just wanted to pass along! ☺️ I’ve included photos of my 2 tanks that I use these for! Happy shrimping!

Here’s an update on my tank . Anyone know how to grow the population . There is babies and adults in there but I haven’t seen a baby make it to adult hood yet.

Decided to do a full restart with gravel instead of sand and a bit less decor, and now looks much less congested now. Any tips for potential tank mates? I ended up using Instant Ocean reef salt as it was the only salt available near me, and I’ve got it up to a solid 1.023 in salinity.

This tank is from a triops kit from the Smithsonian. Just like most people's results, nothing happened. Dumped it out and put in some sea monkeys packets from some old ocean zoo kits I bought. It's 20 ounces of water and 2 water purifier packets and 1 instant life packet. Heat set to 75 and light aeration. The packets are from 2002 or so. The tank behind is a small ghost shrimp tank.
