I pick mine up at a local store

Idk if you're getting red cherry shrimp I'f you're only paying .33$ I think you might be talking about ghost shrimp. And yeah cherrys are among the easiest to breed. Just leave em alone and they do their business!

Looks great! I'm also trying a RCS setup in a 20gal long, not very far along yet though.

I love the rock "scaffold" !! Hope it's sturdy!!

I'm setting up my old 20gal long tank to try and breed some RCS. I picked up four today. Still early in setup though, I'll post more pics as I add to it.

Working on setting up my old 20gal as a cherry shrimp tank, I picked up four of them today. Just starting out decoration and plant wise, here are some pics.

The downside to peat moss is that it is a more rapid decomposing material and needs to be replaced more often unlike the cured wood and black water extract

Tannins are organic compounds that are present in many different plant species and have different functions for the plants. Adding drift wood can lower ph and soften the water which is great if you have species of fish that are from the amazon basin. Soaking as you did does well for removing the...

Na the yellow tint in the water is coming from the tannis leaching from the new pieces of drift wood. I also use tetra backwater that results in a water tint. The fish like it and I don't mind the coloration.

Thanks! :)

Seachem Flourite, and some larger rocks I got from the creek

Definitely** autocorrect

Im defiantly going to try it, I mean it's only a few $$ even if it doesn't work out

The all black does look nice

Alright guys I'll check out that website, thanks for the help

Have about 10 Yamato shrimp and I was interested in maybe getting some cherry shrimp or some others and I'm not sure how compatible the different species are? Any specifics to watch out for?

Just after that last post I got a decent shot!

The shrimp have turned out to be my favorites, their personality is just so funny and different. The red tail is always stirring up everyone but I'm not seeing any signs of stress so I'm assuming it's ok for now. I have another 20gal long I can set back up if he becomes too aggressive

I picked up 3 otocinclus cats today, havnt been able to get a good pic yet though, these guys are harder to find in the mini forrest haha

I'm going to make a trip to the store this week and try that out, I've never heard that about the fish but that would be awesome!

Thanks a lot you guys for all of the nice comments!!

As for the plants I have two swords, a bunch of java moss, and the rest are random plants I got from a friends tank that have just taken off, I'm sorry I don't know the names :(

Thanks, most of it I've had awhile but I recently added two of the larger pieces in the right, I'm hoping to get some growth on them in the next month so they match better

Thanks a lot guys! Im not a big fan of backgrounds but I was thinking of zip tying the cords to the corner for a better look I love the red tail too he is always stirring things up in the tank haha It is a 40gallon breeder tank. My stock is 3 Angels 2 Corey cats 1 swordtail 1 red tale shark...

I was able to take a ton of pics last night, these are my favs
