Is this really adequate for fish, even a trimma goby? Particularly with the recommendation of feeding just before water changes- that would mean daily 100% water changes. Seems like you'd be better off with sexy shrimp, for a display volume half the size of a milk carton. Even trimma gobies need some room to move, and a choice of perches. Mine certainly used more than a quart worth of space in my tank, and seemed to enjoy the pod population to snack on.
It's a cute little setup, but this stocking seems like a case of "just because you can, doesn't mean you should". It also seems like it should come with a warning that micro systems like this are best reserved for the experienced aquarist, and, if anything, the phrasing in the listing looks more like it's meant to appeal to newcomers. If the goal is to offer an inexpensive desktop setup, why not something more like a 3-5 gallon tank?
Maybe it's just me, maybe I'm up too late, but something about this feels inconsistent with the whole idea of helping people keep thriving, healthy, happy fish.
