I lost track... I have some baby tears, blixya, hairgrass, I forget the names of the others... I'm new to planted tanks, so I'm not yet familiar with all the species. On other terms, I wanted to do a small update. I took possession of six boxes at the post office last week. Included was my substrate and xmas prize from @ageofaquariums (thank you!), my t-shirt prize from the crossword comp (Thanks @NoGi), a TDS meter, a pH meter, my return pump, a temperature controller, and other non hobby stuff. I had a few more boxes this week, finally got my mesh. Got that special piece I was waiting for, however it is not quite ready to be installed. I also received the supplement for the substrate and plants. I saw eyes in the berries of the first one I noticed, the one with the most eggs. Unfortunately that female died and my efforts to save the eggs failed... I also hope the last 2 days of 40+ won't affect them in a bad way. (still looking for a chiller) I did find a few shrimplets when I added an IAL to the tank, so I guess they don't really mind 28+ degrees. I still have lots to come, saddles and berries everywhere.

Its been a pleasure helping you into this hobby mate, I look forward to seeing your shrimp in full bloom and good to meet nice guys like yourself with good honest genuine hearts, cheers Ian, catch up soon.

i am sorry for your loss [emoji22] thats terrible. but reading the forums like this has taught me something more valuable than personal experience o.O if you can believe it. read everything. reading things like this teaches me that shrimp are jumpers dont leave shrimp uncovered. there is an answer for everything out there already. just gota look for it [emoji1365] i am sorry for your loss [emoji22] thats terrible. but reading the forums like this has taught me something more valuable than personal experience o.O if you can believe it. read everything. reading things like this teaches me that shrimp are jumpers dont leave shrimp uncovered. there is an answer for everything out there already. just gota look for it [emoji1365]
