Default Biocube - 12/13G

Received a biocube from someone that gave up their hobby.

I'm thinking of using this as a hospital or a guppy tank... I was told it has a strong current from the way its designed. I haven't power the whole thing up yet..

If I go with guppies, do you guys think the current is too much for the fish ?

If the current is too strong you can always break it up a bit with your decor. How many gallons is it?

Sounds like a nice tank. I think you have quite a few options as long as you are careful about overstocking.

Any idea on what you're going to be doing with that biocube? I'd buy it off of you for the right price.

I believe its 12 gallon, its fairly large and heavy. I dont even know if it fully works. Its been sitting in my basement since my friend gave it to me. I dont want to ship it either, it's probably going to get damaged.

12 litres is a bit small to do anything much but 12 gallons has potential.
If you want ideas here's a couple of links:
