not very sure what type is it too bro. =( I brought from Colorful uncle and he says is small version of Javamoss. leaf span never exceeds 8cm. leaf width never exceeds 1.5cm. It is not very spikey looking and thus confirm not needle java..
Oh ya..the tank infested with alot of plantaria (i wonder if it's spelled correctly..) any bro got any ideas how to remove them? I stop feeding the shrimps for 1week already. They are sort of self-sustained by some algaes.
Very nice scape , must be a hard work ? =)
Better pix of all your shrimps please![]()
nice scape. well done.
Nice scaping! But think unless you have a lot of shrimps in there, that you'll be able to see much of your shrimps! Haha.. For me, after much trial and error, i now keep my shrimp tank on a 'clean' look so that they could be appreciated easily!
Next project: Converting my 3ft freshwater fish planted tank into a shrimp tank.
Thanks all for the reply. Not much of hardwork for this scape. Just try & error placement of hardscape and plants and just let nature take it's place. there are actually many many small shrimplets. My camera is too lousy to focus on them clearly.. however here are 2 pics of my shrimps. Usually, they come out during the feeding.
Very nice shrimps! Do you get a lot of shrimplets trapped inside your filter?
Nope, i using those sponge which can be fixed to the inlet of the filter so pose no harm to small shrimplets.
