Hey guys I've made a list of plants, can you take a look and give me a feedback please ? Also you could add plants to the list. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VKHfGEJ7s8NqCfnBn75WTRD3xv_dQkPUelu1S6toaWA Thank you!

Thanks for the welcome. I got back into shrimp a couple of months ago. Had a break from them for a few years after having RCS. Currently keeping CRS and yellow cherries. Looking forward to learning more about keeping, and line breeding shrimp ?

Thanks, it was nice to meet some people. GC cant scare me off even if he was the boogie man. I'll get some pictures up soon and have some dollars for more shrimp. dang bills keep getting in the way.

looks good

@larrymull bok choy has about 158mg of Calcium per 170g. So it's about 100-110mg per 100g, which is not too bad.

Okay got that terrible disease we all get a bad case of MORETANKITIS. It started with the plan to keep it very basic and minimal. A while ago I got some really nice driftwood from Fishmosy and couldn't resist using some. So it is still evolving and was done a budget of $0. I decided to split the 3ft tank into two sections and remebered that I had some glass dividers spare and thought too easy they are already drilled. Went to get them and then remembered I gave them to the guy who bought three 4ft tanks of me....Damn!!!! What now???? I found some fairly thick clear perspex. Cool this will work.......Now how can I add add holes for flow between the two sides? I know I will cover the holes with plastic mesh. Searched high and low couldn't find any. Ahhhhhhh!!!! I threw it out a few weeks ago.......Damn!!!! I was trying to think of what to do when I noticed the top of an old fry breeding box. So I cut out a rectangle at the bottom and fitted some plastic flywire to stop shrimplets getting through and fixed it in place. Works a treat. I then cut the perspex divider a couple of mm less then the width of the tank and split some old air hose which I fitted onto each side. This allowed me to jam it into position firmly enough to stay but also allows me to take it out if I decide to take it back to a single tank, without having to try and clean up silicone. Driftwood, mixture of shrimp sand, black gravel, small river pebble, clay balls, grey slate Hang on filter, air filters So I have used some bolbitis, sword, val, java fern, windolove, Native moss, riccia fluteans, subwassertang. I intend to put some hornwort and elodea at the back and am also going to add some marshwort which I hope will grow up to the water level and give a waterlily type look. I still have some plants to go in at the back to get some height but here are a few pictures. You can see the lid of the fry saver used as a vent. Be kind and remember this was done on a zero budget One of the pieces was a branch so I decided to use it and make it look like a weeping willow and attached it to a piece of slate then added some java moss I decided to hide the air filter behind the large piece of driftwood. The moss ledges from Newbreed
