Post up your office tanks

Who here has a tank in their office?

Since I'm pretty much living life in a cubicle now. I've been kicking around the idea of a small nano for my office. I'm pretty much looking for ideas.

I've got way too much stuff in too small of an office

the 10 gallon i had was pretty sweet. I would totally do it again if i ever had an office, tho i think id go for a nuvo 16 type setup or another long tank and a gobie/shimp pair at the least.

I have been tying with the idea myself now for a while.

I've thought about it, but it would be too much of a distraction! I thought of bringing my nano to my office when I ever set up my bigger tank, but as time passes, I keep thinking its a bad idea. I would be most worried about slacking with the maintenance, and arranging water changes. Would definitely have to be mostly automated with controller, and probably could not do as much stix as I have now.

That said, if you can swing it, I think it would be great to have an office tank. Just wish I had the time, LOL!

Hmm...actually I was thinking something along the lines of maybe macro algae or mangrove and maybe a shrimp or fish.

I've also always wanted a small nano with just a corkscrew anemone and Pederson's shrimp.

Are we allowed to post facebook links on here?

I just received an email from BRS and they had an office theme last month and a bunch of people posted their office tanks on there. That might give you a bunch of ideas.

I had this 3g Pico on my desk for about 3 year...these pictures were when it was first set up. When I took the little tank down most of the rocks where cover with zoa's, shroms, xenias and a green hammer.
The most challenging part of an office tanks is long weekends, holidays breaks, vacations and most companies going green and shutting down their A/C's on weekends"¦
Besides that you get 8-12 hours of constant enjoyment of your tank habitants"¦
The clowns' outgrowth the tank within a few months and were given away and I only kept a 1 yellow goby, 1 serpent star, 1 cleaner shrimp and one emerald crab.
"¢ I kept a small amount of chaeto behind the rocks
"¢ Half gallon water changes every week
"¢ At the end of the day I used to dripped my top off

i like your ideal of a mangrove tank... after seen the video of Julian Sprung's Sump and the bonsai mangrove in there i am digging that idea for my kids tank.
