fish tank for pet mice?

I have been thinking about using my old fishtank as a cage for 1 or 2 female pet mice, i have looked it up and know a tank is suitable, i have a 14L glass tank, is that big enough for two mice or too small, these will be my first pet mice.

Thanks
Its a 14 litre tank.

it is a perfect size for 2 mice. :3 Make sure to get a lid or they might escape, Also, i recommend you utilize the whole space.

Here is some picks of how I used to decorate my male mouse's 10 gal tank. I know house 2 girls in their, but have not taken any pics of it yet.

good luck

If you have any mouse care questions feel free to email me.

*EDIT*
14 liters or 14 long gal aquarium? I read 14L as 14 long. If you meant 14 liters then this is WAY to small. The general rule is 5 gals per mouse. I recommend a 10 gal for a pair of females.

*EDIT*
nursing student is incorrect in thinking mice do not deserve an enriching environment. Mice are very intelligent and giving them variety in their environment will allow tem to show personality. If you give them just a sock and food/water, they are only allowed to hide in the sock and eat and drink.... thats definitely a boring existence isn' it? Definitely provide variety for your mice. :3
Good luck :3

When selecting a fish tank, pet owners usually have two options available to them, each with their own positives and negatives. There's the higher end tanks made out of glass and acrylic material, normally sold to the more seasoned fish owners with deeper pockets. There are also the lower quality tanks made from plastic that are normally sold to newbies and kids. The plastic tanks shouldn't even be on your list because of their lousy structures, not to mention the fish tend to live shorter lives in them. Your choice will, however, be dependent on your personal preference but it's evident that investing more money in the higher end tanks will get you the best results.

If you're anticipating a non-traditional tank, or a significantly large tank, most fish tank pet store suppliers will recommend an acrylic tank. It's helpful advice if you're not a fan of the more commonly seen rectangular shaped tanks - keep this in mind as you shop. Because of the added weight of both glass and acrylic tanks, it's important that you purchase a strong enough stand that's able to support the full aquarium; however, with an acrylic tank it is essential to have a stand which will completely support the entire bottom of the tank. Otherwise, they can start to pull away after a while.

If you're more into the visual aspect of your fish tank, pet owners like yourself oftentimes go for the glass tanks over the acrylic tanks due to their immunity to scratching. Acrylic tanks tend to scratch easily and discolor over a long period of time giving it a slight yellow touch. So if you're planning on raising fish for a long time, when selecting the correct material for your tank, glass will give you the most bang for your buck.
