welcome back Taygu !@!@
After all the long delay and waiting, I have finally started my second attempt to keep CRS. Have just introduced some CRS about 2 weeks ago followed by 2 yamato and pencil fish. Last weekend, just introduced another 5. Suppose to have 6 but 1 up the lorry during acclimatization.
Here is the little specs of my tank:
Tank size : 24 x 12 x 14 inch
Base : ADA Amazonian (brown)
Filtration : Jebo 825 Canister filter.
Light : 55 watts PL
Using fan to cool the tank (Now considering chiller).
.
PH : 6.5
KH : 2 dKH
Ammonia : zero
GH : Not too sure as when testing it, cannot see the change in colour. As advise by a CRS pro that the changes of the colour is very subtle. Anyway, as long as the shrimp survived, will not be bother about this.
Comments are welcome as I know there are a lot of experienced brothers and sisters out there.

Joe,
In long term a chiller is better for your crs.
PS : your stock level enough for me to get some from you

Hi Nicholas,
Chiller will be for future "expansion".
As for the stock, will have to wait for another week or two...

Bro...
As far as you mantain the PH & Temp below 26.5oC
After change water, add in aged water very slowly... Dripping will be best...
If you failed by keeping crs by above, come find me and i give FOC crs...

Hi, thanks for the tips but dripping it slowly will be a problem as my CRS tank is on a higher than a normal stand. Unless I use a water pump which worth trying..

I am using a resun 280... so far so good no complains
Plee , how often does your chiller kick in ? And what temperature did you set ?
my chiller kicks in every 20 mins or so...
for my 2 ft I use a resun 280
and I use an Artica for my 3 ft
Nice setup, what's the water temperature without the chiller?
hi guys, i would like to ask if a fan is sufficient for a 1ft tank for CRS?
Ya, for a 1ft . it will be enough . But you will have to see the humidity at your place too . It really depends. Get a thermometer to check the degrees that your fan can cool before buying the CRS .
