Newbie Sakura Shrimp Tank

Here are some. Pictures taken by my Galaxy Note. Bought 10 shrimps from the fish farm at Jalan Kayu. Now they gave birth to more than 10 little shrimplets, watching them grow larger everyday. =)

Congrats! By the way riccia is nice to look at but it is like a weed.

Like a weed meaning it grows out of control? the shrimps like to hide in those thick riccia. now wondering whether to buy some driftwood or cave for them to hide.

Mosses are easier to maintain. Riccia will detatch and float all over the place.
