Haha anyway i think better than leaving the tank empty so i find some use to it
What do you mean by inclined setup ? Sorry my English not that great haha , but i intend to make a
moss shrimp tank and maybe some simple background plant

Just came back from farm kind of tired resting first maybe will start tonight by washing the tank then add substrate
and wait for the water to turn clear before i start to put my moss and plant inside Ya got 3 packet of normal grain and 1 packet of fine grain

Wash the tank?? You better siphone some water out prior adding soil...the soil is going to displace a lot of water. Its too much water for you to wash the tank now haha.Btw,you really don't need ada soil if you are only keeping moss, especially the smaller grain types are a lot more expensive. The soil is for your another tank i presume??

All test kits and products have shelf life. I also a victim of expired test kit as bro newlife; a bro in aq sold me a bunch of expired test kit last time sigh. Check the expiry date on the bottom of the box or printed on the test kit bottle. Some lfs allows you to change with receipt if you accidentally bought expired test kit.

Just now to drowsy to follow you to farm...haha can't bike under influence of medicine...lol
