The 5.5 Gallon Nano tank

This is my blog for my 5.5 gallon Nano or pico or whatever, I lost track of what these things are called when they are under 10 gallons. Seems to be a different terminology between almost everyone in the hobby. I started this tank because I hadn't had a tank up for almost a year before 2/28/2010 and due to limited space and not knowing where I was going to be in the future the 5.5 offered everything I wanted. This is my second small tank the first one I had was a 2.5 and that was just too small. that tank filled up very quick and then was destroyed by an irresponsible apartment sitter while I was on vacation. Let's just say that the tnak was contaminated with Beer when I got back. I was pretty upset! In the past I have owned a 14 gallon Aquapod, 20 Long, 20 Tall, 125, 40 Breeder (my second favorite tank), and now the 5.5. This tank has really been the best tank I have had by far, and it is the first tank that I have actually been content with.
