Erm, what is your question?

Just asking for comments or advice bro

[intelsys]

how big is your tank

2 ft tank with 25 litres capacity.

Bro, you only need a decent fan to blow 45 degree across the water surface to cool the water.

Dont buy any CO2 tablet anymore , imo i think they are useless.

bro mind asking why u use two filters

He is using hang on filter.

For me, I think it will get overcrowded soon.
Cherry/Sakura and guppies will reproduce very fast.

Dear bro, I got a HOF from the LFS then I went to another LFS and got the Gex external filter.

Any advice on this. The upside is that the water turns clear quickly after I have dump my Mosura old sea mud

Dear bro, the Neon Tetra and the guppies are reproducing but I think the shrimps are not reproducing :P

I will stop getting more live stocks.

I may start another nano tank for culls in the bedroom :P

[Mr York]

sometimes the reason for the shrimps not producing is that they are stressed living together with fishes. i personally have experienced shrimps being nibble by fishes, so you might want to monitor your situation

[intelsys]

I totally agree bro, I think that my shrimps are stressed. I am providing as much hidding places as I can.

I hope that improves the situation.

So far: Fish population is increasing
Snails on the upward trend too
Shrimps downward for CRS but stable for Yamato (all there)

Thanks

Aheemmm... I think your guppies are producing, definitely not your Neon Tetra.
Neon Tetra lay eggs and it is very difficult to get them to breed in an aquarium and with guppies and shrimps, it will be miracle.

Well, I did read before on a thread that someones cherry does not breed when he had guppies in the same tank, it will be good for you if you do not want them to breed!
If they the female are not berried, then they are not breeding.

Overall, I still think it is a very crowded tank.
Way too many Yamato too. ---> very aggresive shrimps.

i totally agree bro, thank you for your advise.

I got plenty of guppies fry in the tank. I just took my CRS to the external breeding tank as a temporary holding area.

It is crowded alright First time fish tank owner)
