Also, if using a glass canopy over a 20 gallon long tank how would one install the HOB filter? The glass canopy should be closed because I'd be using a 30" fluorescent light over it. Would I have to cut the glass?
And, do you guys prefer HOB filters or sponge filters?
~ I'm still in the process of researching and plan on getting a shrimp tank in 1-2 years. I'm just 13 years old (a kid) so I want to make sure I'm fully prepared (and have enough money saved up, lol.) I've never had an "aquarium" before except when I was 6 years old. I had a poor male bettas in a 1 gallon "betta tank."
