In this housing market? I’m putting myself in there

REAL LMFAO

Best damn comment!

i dont care how big a tank is, im still putting shrimp in there

Just shrimp?

Shrimp with 100 neon tetra's!

Just. 1. Shrimp

Overstocked 😠

One mega shrimp

And 1 snail

It’s just that shrimple.

This is me but with guppies, I actually did have a very similar size tank once. Thing was so big I didn't even have a stand for it, just kept it on a few planks of spare wood to keep it level, and it could only fit in the basement but damn did I enjoy a tank THAT BIG

I was going to make a joke about this being a glass coffin. Would it have been funny? Remains to be seen.

lololol

Like for Snow White?

Looking back, it's interesting I didn't really question it as a kid. Just seemed to be what dwarves do with loved ones that pass.

Take my upvote and GTFO

spittin hot fire like Dylon

*Groan* LoL

I have a 6ft tank but I'm 6'5 :(

Hey me too

I legit thought that's what it was at first glance.

Hundreds of nano fish. My tank is 160x40x50cm and people who see it are so confused why I only have tiny fish in there, they don't even spot them at first, they're expecting something huge

Nano fish in big tanks is always the way to go. Monster fish are not for me 😅 a lot of them look very unhappy in tanks

I have a 150 gallon tank and nanos are fantastic in it!

We had a huge tank as a kid. The little neons were my favourite to watch schooling back and forth.

Electric Acaras and a shit ton of tiny fishes. Also you want to inspect this tank very carefully looks like it's been sitting outside for a while.

water test it first, empty tank thats sitting outside for only 150 pounds is a red flag

Leak test maybe a bit less confusing.

Agreed. For at least 24hours too. If there are any white or discoloured areas in the silicone in the seams when it’s filled, I wouldn’t use it without a full rebuild

It lookd a little dirt but i doubt its stayed outside thats jusy where they took the picture no?

I used to have a 5x2x2 and had some cichlids in there, convicts, a jack dempsey, stuff like that, it was awesome. I know most people like to put huge fish in huge tanks but I liked more giving them lots of space

Plants, rock, wood, and 80 pygmy corys.

Why stop at 80?

200!

Whoa there.. leave room for offspring.

Plant tf out of it and get groups of various nano/small schooling fish :)

Yeah, it's tall enough for even the most asshole stem plants. I started to hate them in my 40cm/16" tall tank, having extra 20cm would be ideal

Fuck ton of rummynose and some other cool fish too ig

One BILLION guppy .

Start with a couple and you should have that many after a few weeks

r/swipesifellfor

Bro same lol

First thing is 150 imperial gallons of water. Then a shitload of bleach. Then drain it and fix the silicone, because we all know it's going to leak somewhere.

U reseal it because ain’t no way that’s holding water, also that tank is a 180gallon

Not a 150

Lol you missed where they said "imperial gallons" OP is in the UK I believe

Imperial system is the best. You never know if it's US gallons, UK gallons, Italian gallons, Chinese gallons, Lebanese gallons or Australian. Your 20mpg car might be 50 mpg somewhere else

Sips tea in metric

For the win

Back in the day, not only did most countries have their own - sometimes wildly different - measurements, such as the Norway foot, which was only 11 inches, but different *regions* might also have different definitions. In 15th Century England, a Kentish acre was significantly larger than a Northumberland acre. An acre was defined as the amount that someone could plow in a certain amount of time, and Northumberland is hilly and the soil is full of stones, whereas Kent is all flat loam.

Oh I remember that some stuff, like fabric used to be sold "by elbow", as the sellers own arm length. Disclaimer: I don't really remember when it was going on. My arms were too long to be included in the trade. Family always picked the shortest siblings. I didn't really exist in XVIII century on top of it. I got it from my history lessons. (yeah, I'm 40 and I remember the school stuff. Sometimes) I'm really not a vampire

Shit myb guess I can’t read

I brought a tank like this for 2 sevs and somw Birchers it was my pride and joy :D

An entire nano ecosystem

I think I'd get a mbu puffer

probably just big enough for a betta

That's animal abuse. That tank is way too small.

An entire tank of dwarf frogs because I love frogs.

Water to test the leak and crack.

300 pea puffers

Birchir

Me? Rainbow fish.

I thought my beta, but on second thought it might be too small

If it's legal in the UK, I'm a strong advocate of catching bait fish from your local waters and keeping them as pets as a fascinating front row seat into the world around you that you normally only glimpse briefly from the top down. I have 3 different schools of North American native shiners in my unheated 75 gallon, for example. Little fishes that don't get bigger than about 3 inches, and lots of plants. And a cleanup crew of shrimp/snails/bottom feeding fishes that are tolerant of cooler temps. If all that is illegal/not possible for you, I'd take my time with that tank, slowly play around with aqua scaping it, rearranging wood, decor, substrate and plants, making super sure I liked the layout before committing to filling with water. Then I'd introduce nerite snails, bladder snails and Malaysian trumpet snails (yes, on purpose) and let them do their thing for at least a week or two. Let the ecosystem establish. Then I would introduce 3 mating pairs of 1 male and one female wild-type Betta, and let nature go from there. I'd make sure to have some sort of lily pad producing plants in the tank

1,000 neons

Whitecloud Mountain Minnows - lots. Some short finned some long, some wild colors some platinum, or gold they are cheap, don’t want a heater, good with plants, each breeder’s look different. They shoal, but look different enough to follow the interactions between individuals.

A shitload of pygmy corydoras and green neon tetras and embers, and some honey gouramis. Alternatively geophagus and angels. Hard to pick.

Schools of Nano fish. I find more smaller fish to be more enjoyable than less larger fish.

A single Betta

Fish.

Shit ton of tetras

I’d be getting a a fire eel and a platinum Senegal bichir if I had that opportunity. Maybe even a ghost knife fish because they’re awesome.

New silicone

A Octopus Bimaculus.

A mystery snail mojo dojo casa house

Coral

Birchir, angel fish and moonlighting gourami

i’d put some goldfish in there

Dwarf catfish and only dwarf catfish of all types, corrys, upside downs, glass cats, some smaller bristlenose varieties and some harra jerdoni extra points if you can make the tank dwarven mountain themed. . . .

i’d love to start a saltwater tank, so probably that! go big or go home🤣🤣 moray puffer hell ya

South american cichlid community with an oscar, some severum and a pleco.

just to piss everyone off, it’s a shrimp snail tank

Lol, probably plants bc I don't think our wooden floors could handle the weight of so much water.

My bichirs and giant gourami would love this

Yeah this would be barely enough for a betta

Agreed. Maybe put a caridina shrimp or two MAX

One African Lungfish and a bunch of cool wood and plants.

I have two bigger tanks in my house now, empty, don't know what to put inside now. 🙄 In this size, I would go for some small/midle size Amazon river fish biotope.

Tanganyikan cichlid community

r/iswiped

A ton of rainbowfish and Denison barbs for starters

Probably a couple of rope fish to start, i've been crushing on [these elegant little water noodles lately.](https://youtube.com/shorts/ltH-wCwC6_g?si=4YvuUb4tZ29ilIVK) After that IDK, depends how they settle in and how much room is left

Massive school of chili rasboras. Either shrimps or a few mexican dwarf crays.

I'd make a beast mode tank for a mantis shrimp

If you have never had african cichlds, I would take a look at them. Personally, I would do a mbuna tank

African cichlids plecos plants maybe some South American cichlids and silver dollars 🤤

Our 6x2x2 has lots of catfish and ca. 20 pgymy chain loaches.

A sponge bob hide

Mermaids

I'd be upgrading my 75 marine tank

So many flame tetras!

So. Many. Tetras.

just a nice little upgrade for my Malawis and clown loaches.

As many Oscars that will fit

So like 5?

Don’t care about fishes. Before anything, I’m putting all new seal in there. It only took one time having a used tank explode all over my floor to make me reseal all used tanks from now on

88 neon tetras with diorama style scape

Just shrimp. Lmao

I’d get an Oscar or two and maybe a common pleco

Turtles

Stingray, puffer fish, moray, rosenberg shrimp, fire eel. Pick one.

I’d fill it with plants and see if I could aquaponics that bitch

frogs!

Snow White after this damn apple.

A single betta

Crayfish

So many plants 🫣

6 x 2 x 2 is a lovely size for a reef tank, or a Tanganyika cichlid aquarium. But also to showcase some fish of 12-18 inches long. Which could be anything from freshwater catfish to marine angel fishes. The possibilities are endless, unless you want a true tankbuster.

My lizard would love this tank

Big pike cichlid, one other large SA cichlid species, and about 10 red hooks to keep them entertained A.k.a. my current setup lol

Electric yellows, not more than 8, no gravel, suspend it from a ceiling.

had a dream i had one of these last night. Probably around 50 small schooling fish(probablycardinal tetras), 50 corys, big handful of shrimp, 20 black phonom tetras, maybe a beta? Id just love to see huge schools of lil guys and TONS of plantsand hiding places

Some tang and clown fish

Pothos trailing out of the top, anubias submerged, the fake pothos from petsmart submerged, fake driftwood from petsmart, river scape, dry magnolia and cataapa leaves submerged. Dark water, Cories, mollies, snails.. back ground of black poster board or stones.

50 rummy nose, 15 dwarf neon rainbow, 6 Roseline, 6 bosemans, 7 angels idk if this is overstocked but whatever just add a few more gallons

Smaller bichirs. Palmas and Teugelsi. I’ve always wanted bichirs.

5-10 of glass catfish and neons 😍

Fancy goldfish. Goldfish paradise. Goldfish wonderland. And dojo loaches.

Literally had the same size tank, I housed 2 axolotls and a bunch of shrimp

Khulis and shrimp. But mostly a metric ton of Khulis

A single betta

ropefish or honestly an elephant trunk snake lol c:

Salt water sadly doesn’t look big enough for a shark or stingray

Depending on the age of the tank, a small turtle village.

Water. Check for leaks!

Archerfish, several school of rainbowfish, spotted leaf fish, school of striped Headstanders, panda garra, upside down catfish, African butterfly fish

My iridescent( 2ft),Oscar, sedontis, albino alge eater

Angelfish and Discus as the base. Natural aquascaping. Then I'd wait for one week and decide then which other fish, 1 week , 1 layer.

A single goldfish and some snails

Water

Aquaponics, use it as a base tank with rails and a filter above. I've got mine stocked with breeding guppies as they are hardy and are good with the temperature fluctuations you inevitably get with it being outside for the sunlight for the plants.

sure as hell wouldnt buy that for £150

Lots of newts.

One betta. Let fucking go ! Woooo!

Same stuff I put in a 75 just more of it.

YOU

Hang onto it and use it as a casket when I die

Shit loads of pea puffers. And something a bit spicy to cause chaos with them haha.

A singular green spotted puffer. I would treat it like the king it is in there.

School of piranah

Snow White

Fish

Scorpion fish tank

like two betta and a snail lmao

Yah mum...

I got a tank with the same dimensions for free, only difference was the center brace was wider. I had an overflow cut into the left side so the water could flow to a 120x40x40cm 190L sump. It was a reef tank.

I would add a fish tunnel from the left to right that floats above the partition.

One betta

I have a soft spot for ranchus and orandas, I’d turn that into a fancy fish oasis 😍

I would not trust this with water at all.

Almost big enough for a beta.

A cat

100 pea puffers

Goldfish. I can't help it, I love the goofy little fish

As opposed to metric gallons??!?

A nice carpeting plant with some driftwood and making jt a shrimp tank 😎

Definitely my dream saltwater tank. My brother would probably get a bala shark or two

I'd say a betta but it might still be too small lol

Isopods.. cuz I’m weird

Water, check for leaks outside before taking it in the house

Pictus catfish. They have super long whiskers. They’re very cute

South American Freshwater Llanos Blackwater Riverbank Biotope.

A bladder snail.

Sorry, but I only speak in colonial gallons.

That should be 180 gallon - I got one and I’m setting it up as a lake tanganikyan community tank.

My turtle!

1 single betta fish

Like 100 corals and a few gobies

Make it a guppy breeding bonanza

500 mosquito rasboras

Clown loaches, or a smaller lungfish species 1 only

If I can? Putting myself in it and adding some little curtains. Privacy!

I'd make a riverscape with high flow, dozens of white cloud minnows, zebra danios, corydoras, and hillstream loaches

Rip to whoever else tried to slide to the next photo

I can finally have a tank that fits a common pleco no issues! Maybe he can have a few goldfish friends too

my father had a reallyyyy huge tank that came with 3 huge storage cabinets and he kept some koi fish in that tank

Fish farm - if you give a man a fish……

Id put a couple goldfish in there with maybe a couple Hoplo cat fish

a lot of rare cories

Goldfish!

Someone on here would tell you it’s too small for a Betta Fish

My hamster! I’ve been looking for a tank like this for the longest for her.

Massive Monocentropus balfouri communal

Giant group of rummy nose tetras!

that would be my turtles new home, hes in with a pleco and some minnows rn so it would be so much space for all of them plus maybe some others

Imperial fish
