I am looking for a small invert display enclosure I can keep at my office.
Big box pet stores offer a profusion of small aquaria, intended for use with bettas. I wouldn’t personally use any of the really small ones for bettas, but some might make great enclosures for inverts of various types, especially if modified. I am thinking about using and/or converting some for various inverts, most likely isopods, small millipedes, and possibly others. Three of the most important considerations are that the end product, once modified, must:
1. Be escape-proof for the intended inhabitants
2. Keep fungus gnats out
3. Look reasonably appealing (otherwise, I would just use plastic tubs I use at home for practical reasons.)
Has anyone experimented with this idea? If so, I’d love,to hear about what you did and how it worked for you.
