Show off your shrimp tank!

[TheresaM]

My 4 gallon red cherry shrimp tank. Just set up 3 days ago. Light is an LED desk lamp. I have some fissidens moss, coral moss, flame moss, a giant marimo moss ball and trying to grow a carpet of glossostigma from clippings from my mature 6 gallon (soon to be CRS and CBS tank). I added some rotala later not shown in pic. Substrate is fluval shrimp stratum. Currently have 11 RCS with 6 chili rasboras. No heater (room temp 71-72F) and a small AZOO filter.

Very nice

A year old tank, with a few too many plants and critters

I started a Cherry shrimp tank about a year ago and have been adding plants ever since. -Made this video after capturing a worm that had somehow hitched its way in on a something. Needs a bit of a cleaning, but the water isn't usually that dirty the ground was moved a bit while i was on the hunt Caught the mystery aquarium worm ! - YouTube

Did some work on the 5g RCS tank. Going to fill in the empty area with some dwarf sag. Still not sure if I want to keep the floating pennywort, but I do want some sort of floating plant...

In case you weren't informed these will cross and the babies will start reverting back to wild coloration.

Perhaps placing the blue velvets in a floating fine mesh breeder will keep their pleopods off each other (until you can move them).

Looks like a piece of manzanita wrapped in guppy grass

Thanks! It's a 'nano tree' I got from Bob's Tropical Plants. I originally had willow moss tied to it but it just looked too dark. Now I just have guppy grass kind of tucked into the branches, no string.

That's such a cool idea!

That's such a cool idea!

I'm proud of it, especially considering the fact that I'm not a very creative person
