spot on, I hate these things, way too much hard work for a cheaply made but expensive fad that often ends up with dead fish etc because it's just too small and has poor filtration. So, for a few shrimps, yes, even a couple of WCM like in the picture, but nowt else.

Its worth noting that small tanks are harder to run and should be left for more experienced keepers. The small amount of water makes water quality issues happen fast.

I have a 30l and have given up with real fish. It is after all an ornament.

I had the 30l one for one gold fish. The filtration is Awful! Even though I bought all the recommended accessories, filtration rocks etc. Turned into stinking cabbage water every few days! Ended up building a pond in the garden for said goldfish, got him some friends and ended up with a ton of baby goldfish over the years!

we started with 3 mollies(Fatty, Blacky and the other one). The fat one I picked gave birth to 26 babies the next week within a month the big ones died because of too many fish I suppose. that was the third attempt over a 10 year span. The babies grew and then died off as well.

Had a baby for 15 years, keeping a couple of minnows in it with some rocks and decent fake plants, use it as a table lamp in the lounge. Is starting to look a bit second hand, still using a halogen bulb and was thinking of getting an led top and second power supply so i can add the light to Home Assistant, so getting one to replace it. Along with the £5 for using the app I consider it a bargain, thanks OP.
