Do let me know your opinions

oceanfree tank? the smallest one?
I like the mini size
I think your shrimp is sakura grade

I like the home , but don't really like tannin water.
Maybe can lose the honrwort and change to floating plants.. looks crowded to me

Of corse if your shrimps are housing in this mini home.. will be a fantasy

Hi thanks for the reply

I'm planning to move out the hornwort to something else still looking at what kind of floating plants to use , as I need something as fast growing as hornwort to keep my water condition stable.

It's some china brand tank I got from Sam yick, forgot about the dimension but I remember it's 3 liters , small and compact but hell to do any maintenance , fingers too big hahaha.

And I think the mini home can only house baby shrimps hehehe

try lesser duckweed or frogbit or mini water lettuce , in size proportion here

buy a longer tweezer to do the maintenace .. it cost around $8 or less

Or go spotlight buy syringe bulb .. can do wonders for maintenance for mini tank

You can take the thermometer out as you have another tank beside it, the bigger tank temp will be close to the small one , wont have big difference anyway

Cute looking miniature, anything smaller than this I would love to make into pendant and wear.
