Hi,
This is my shrimp tank, which sits next to my home office computer.
It's usually much more "mossy" but this is after a trim.
-It has been setup for about 6 months now.
-Currently has two Arc Pod 9w lights (CF plant bulbs with reflectors).
-I dont fertilize at all but really should do now i have more light on it. I use water from my main EI tank with some fresh for nutrients.
-Eco complete is the substrate.
-Tank currently has Java Moss, Anubias Nana and the tall stuff at the back i cant remember the name for.
-I wanted to make a bigger home for my cherry shrimp to breed (which they have once) so just started chucking bits of wood and sticks in.
----------
It is usually much much fuzzier.
When i get a bit more free time i aim to plan to convert this into a Igawa layout and try some ricca or other carpeting plant, which ive had no sucess with my 46G corner tank (which is very deep).
For this ive bought some aquascaping rock from the uk online retailer aqua essentials as well as some dragon stone. im not sure which one to break up and use yet. I'll post some pictures of both to aid discussion/help.
Current occupants are 8 cherry shrimp and 2 oto's.
Best Regards,
John
