EQUIPMENT
•3G rimless petco tank w/ glass lid
•Nicrew HOB filter
•Hygger 10W heater

My budget build started with the same tank, heater, and filter! Looking forward to see how yours turns out!

Just FYI mine started leaking after a few months, I suspect because of the gravity fed ATO putting pressure on the seams. I’d recommend not doing that lol.
