How you had it in the last picture is fine. Top it off with Substrat pro on top of the marine pure. You don't need another sponge above all the biological media. The basket should have a lid that will

A big trim on HC and boy was I a happy man when I noticed a tiny tiny shrimplet! He was so small I had trouble focusing on him!! All the others came out for a feed too!

You will find that everyone has their own way of doing things. I only explained how I set up my filters which happen to be almost the same way Jayc does his but it not the only way you must do it

Man this tank been fun!! Lots of saddles and one big berried DAS. Unfortunately, Otto's don't seem to like my tank and keep dying so giving up on them for now. Plants are out of control ATM so need a big trim next couple days.

Going really well! I'm still noob with the sexing of them so can't tell if I have any females or not. I'll post some photos and see if you can tell.

Just noticed one of my chameleons berried but with only maybe 5-6 eggs. What would cause that?

Got some females there for sure I think.

Easily a fave tank of mine, just a simple layout which I like, well planted, healthy and that HC without CO2 looks like the back lawn after a decent rain, haha, sweet tank.

      Good video by Chris Lukhaup!

      By beanbag · Posted

      One interesting thing he mentioned was "Bacteria pressure", which I guess just means number of bacteria around.  Yet I see all these other videos from shrimpkeepers bragging about how much bacteria their filtering system holds. Also interesting is no mention of using anti-biotics to treat bacterial infection.  I think that has fallen out of favor recently.

      Finally set up the 30L Shrimp Tank

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      Pure Red Line (PRL) Shrimps Western Australia seller

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.
