So, I'm curious how you started your "shrimp jungle." What substrate are you using and are you using liquid ferts, CO2, etc? I've been timid on starting a planted tank, but I know my shrimp will benefit from it. I kind of want to stay away from CO2. That's my main setback, or else all my tanks would be planted! Lol. Thanks in advance!

I realize it wasn't MY Shrimp Jungle you were asking about LOL I'm just used to calling mine that The OP's tank is a good one as well. The more Shrimp Jungles the merrier.
