Would any kind of filtration be needed in general or could you just keep the little cube sitting around? Im sure ferts would be needed and water changes too but the little things might be fun if they are little matinence and cheep to start.

I have seen them before here---->http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/189/1litre5us.jpg I was thinking of getting one, what could I keep in there? Could I have a rug of hairgrass? Would any fish live in there? Milkyboy Milkyboy

WQ probably wouldn't do for shrimp either, but maybe a pest snail or two?

I think you probably could keep a shrimp or two in there, the little guys, but probably not until after it all settles and the plants are growing well. I have seen many tiny nano cubes with fish/shrimp/snails in them. Come Play Yahtzee With Me! http://games.atari.com Http://www.myleague.com/yahtgames

There are various clamp lights available. I have this one on a 5.5g glass tank. It's a 5 watt halogen. If you end up doing this make sure to share some pics ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean
