Here is a three gallon aquarium I purchased because my son won some goldfish at a school fair. I had the goldfish in a goldfish bowl but I found that I was constantly doing water changes because the water kept getting so filthy. I needed something small with a good little filter. So I found this little tank and ordered it, it was only $55.00 including shipping

    Small cartridge filter in the back. I love the look of this little filter. I hope it can handle the rigors of a mini reef tank.

    Added water and live sand. The heater looks huge in there!

    Added live rock. Three small pieces from my local fish store. The rock is small but the look gigantic in there.
