Hi Everyone,
I'm brand new and really love the nano tanks I've been viewing. I decided to try one. This is a new hobby for me, but I've spent a few months reading up on planted tanks, and last week I put together an Eclipse 3 gallon system. I purchased everything locally, and even though I would love some smaller plants, I know I'll have to order them.
So far, I've been using everything that comes with the tank. It has a T5 light, and I'd like to stick with it:
After it cycles for a month or two, I'd like to add in some shrimp, but we'll see how it goes. Any tips, tricks, or advice is welcome. Thank you!

So far, I've been using everything that comes with the tank. It has a T5 light, and I'd like to stick with it:
- Substrate: Florite
- Java Ferns (one on the driftwood, one behind it, sitting on the substrate)
- Argentine Sword
- Hydrophilia
After it cycles for a month or two, I'd like to add in some shrimp, but we'll see how it goes. Any tips, tricks, or advice is welcome. Thank you!
