NT chameleon shrimp tank setup?

Hey everyone.

thinking about setting up a natural looking tank for these shrimp, was going to use some fluval stratum   as the base substrate layer. leaf litter on top (melaleuca maybe?) with some driftwood and ferny type plants, with a sponge filter and low light. would be in a 30cm cube tank.

am I on the right track? can anyone else share pics of there setups.

Cheers

this is my setup. The tank is still running and the shrimp are breeding I lost interest in line breeding them as I didn't have the space at the time. the current stock is a pretty poor base to work from so I'll be shutting the tank down soon to pursue some other projects. 

I found they seemed happiest when TDS was high (roughly 200), temperature seemed to be unimportant, including very high temps approaching high twenties and low thirties.
