As spending money on a tank and just letting it sit their with nothing in it for most of the time doesn't make sense to me... I started looking around for an alternative. I found an idea that really intrigued me... So heres the plan:
1. Take a plastic wrap and cover the bottom of a spare bathtub
2. Fill it up with 10, 20, or 30 gallons of water (whatever is most suitable for whatever medication i might be using)
3. Add a 250w heater I have sitting around, probally should use more gallons cause 250w is good for 50 gallons
4. Add a few fake plants and a broken flower pot or something
5. Use seachem prime to keep ammonia and nitrite down
6. Perhaps put in a cheap airstone and airpump
7. Do frequent water changes
As I already have most of these items all I need to buy is a few decorations and air pump (plus airline tubing and airstone)
Do you guys think it could possibly work? Is there anything i forgot or anything that could go wrong? Thanks in advance!
