                      Let me know if you decide to sell it, I am setting up a 4 gallon cube and this should work for my low light plants.

                              thanks! so far the flora list is: dwarf sag, anubias nana petite, some kind of amazon sword, banana plant, and some kind of yellow plant i got for free lol.

                              And i also have only about 3 paint fire red females in there with a male as for adults. and 50+ babies lol. gotta thin out the babies once colors come in
