Nice! I like it. Very natural looking. The different leaf shapes, sizes, shades of green allows the plants to stand out.

Hi Button,

I like your setup a lot. Very natural looking.

By the way, I understand from where you are from, the weather should be quite cold at the moment. Do you have any heating element in your setup?

All of the CRS are still there, but since the shrimps have started to breeding females are hiding in the moss, but there are so many baby crystal shrimps now -some of them S, and some are S+ and SS. That's very nice!

Hi Ben,

Thank you very much
It is not really cold inside the building but it is very common to put a heater into a tank. It is 26 C with the heater at the tank.

In a planted tank the shrimp babies are hiding about two weeks after the born so it cannot be a problem at all. Here is my another tank with lots of fishes (Paracheirodon innesi and Paracheirodon axelrodi) and you can see the shripms even are not hiding. And I regret that the fishes do not eat Cherry Red Shrimps here. Too much red shrimps in the tank.
