| This is what I was going to do if I were to get one:
2 1/2 or a 5 gallon aquarium (you are right on with that one CeciliaL)
Pebbles or river rock
A top of some sort to cover (you can get a glass top for these small aquariums)
A small florescent light for the top
OPTIONAL: A small fish air pump, the smallest available. Again there are two sides to the story. Some say air, some say none. I was going to rig the pump to where air tubing was to run under the rocks with a bunch of "pinholes" in the tubing. This would also allow diffusion of the air thus lowering the amount of force of flow of air. "Little to no flow, but fresh." If it don't work, I can still yank it out. But this will also help control mildew settlement (hopefully).
There are still things I have to work the bugs out of this set up. Temp control, placement and fungus fighting are what I worry about. BUT in other forums I have heard of success with this setup!!!
