Beautiful scape...thanks for sharing
thanks....Beautiful scape...thanks for sharing
2 weeks are gone since the set-up. So far, no major issues with the tank inhabitants, and my RCS female presented me with at least a dozen shrimplets.
The bad thing, it's about the GH, that keep rising (my water it's about 6º and now it's about 12º), due to the use of seiryu stone, and some plants are having some problems to adapt, like bolbitis and my mosses (mini-pellia and phoenix moss).

Hi,
Got some news to share
I went to my lfs what a lovely sight. Some really nice fish to have - boraras brigittae. Brought a small group of 6 home. Added as well to the nano a killer snail.
Swimming free after conditioning.
crystal black shrimp in housekeeping
Hello,
Got some sad news :crying: .
For an unkown reason all the boraras brigittae died and with that almost took with them all my crystal black shrimp colony. Just got one shrimp left.
Started with big wc to keep ammonia levels to acceptable levels for shrimp and fish.
I big joe...
you have a great layout.... i like a lot the positions of the rock's
great shrimps ....
keep going
Hi,
Already ordered a new nano tank for next project...
But decided to introduce new shrimps to the tank. A small colony of crystal red shrimp...
what is the temp for your tank?
Very nice nano tank.
boraras brigittae are pretty fragile, last time my bro tried them, they didn't die en masse but eventually they all died... not too sure what's their lifespan though.
brilliant...its really nice. kudos bro
Around 23ºC
A week after adding the crystal red shrimp, life in the nano tank goes on. The CPD's are very fun to watch, got lot's of new red cherry shrimp and the crystal red shrimps are doing great.
Some algae just started to appear on the rocks, but got no major concerns about it. A simple nerite snail will do the job.
Hi,
Got some updates....
Today I bought new bulbs to replace the old ones and bought a group of corydoras pygmaeus to keep CPD's distracted.... and it works.
Some pics to share.
My berried female red shrimp.
and my mosses.
Hi,
During last week I replaced my bulbs. Since then I've noticed some really nice growth from bolbitis and mosses.
Noticed as well some clado algae growing in the driftwood and for precaution I reduced the light quantity, just living one bulb on.
Will keep daily water changes of 10% and, if the algae don't go will have to try CO2. Will see what happens now.
I like the way the rocks are cover with algae, nice!
Thanks mate.
Lately, I'm having some problems with clado algae...
Clado still there, but overdosing excel and spot treatment with H2O2 it's working and, trimmed most of the affected leaves.
Algae pics to share with you :whistle:
Some got a moss background, I got an algae background... :crazy: side view
