Maybe you'll be able to move the neons in time to your Mr. Aqua before the shrimplets come about? Do you have extra media you'll be using to "seed" the eheim with in your filter now? Got to get that sucker cycled quick! Haha
Do you already have a scape in mind, or do you foresee that phase to be a lengthy one due to indecisiveness? Your unborn baby shrimp depend you, dude! Haha
I think what I'll do is move all the filter media to the eheim since ill be using Aquasoil for my shrimp tank anyway. Ill just put the shrimp in the tank and see what happens. Haha. Worst case, only a few shrimp make it. I think there will be plenty of hiding spaces. I can always use a breeder box but I'm not that concerned at all. This is just a sign that ill have even more when I move them to the shrimp tank. But, how long do you guys think it takes for Aquasoil to stop leaching?
Ill have the Mr. Aqua done in about 1 1/2 weeks. I just need plants to come in and stuff. Ill be scaping and setting up the shrimp tank at the same time I plant the Mr. Aqua. If they say 30 days for eggs to hatch..do you think the Aquasoil would stop leaching ammonia in 2 weeks? I could have the shrimp tank shrimp ready as long as the Aquasoil leached in two weeks or less.
As for scape, I won't have a definitive hard scape. Scape will be all plants with groupings based on colors, leaf textures, leaf shapes, size, growth, and so on.
I might just leave the shrimp in and recycle my tank when everything moves to the Mr. Aqua. Then when I do set up the shrimp tank ill be able to take media from the eheim to seed it.
