From left to right- Apple cherry guava grape and (peach or nectarine I think!) Treatment method - Rinsed thoroughly, froze overnight, removed from freezer and soaked in container outside tank for a few hours then placed in tank. Most leaves fully sank by themselves but a few required a tiny bit of help. I picked one older and one newer leaf from each tree for this test. I will post a couple of update of how things are going in the coming days. There is bountiful food in the tank due to having fed snow not long ago and then just now recently doing a gravel vac which always brings up lots of goodness for the shrimps to munch too!

Yeah that's the pen I won :) Xiao Mi. Really nice tds meter hey, @newbreed aquatics is great. All my shrimp have gone mad for their foods. I'm going to order a heap of mineral balls and other stuff from them after the new year.

No longer have the tank (sold it), but here's a couple of pictures that were taken while it was still up. Fake plants were added for extra hiding places, which probably wasn't necessary... Shrimp are in at least one of the pictures, but they aren't easy to see... (low grades)

View Member regards, skfadmin Thanks for the add started with some rcs about a month ago and am addicted. Went and bought 3 more tanks for Christmas and will be dividing 1 up for some different colours.and then probably the other 2 haha I'm glad to have this much combined knowledge at my fingertips and looking forward to going through the forums thanks again

That's the SKF spirit. Well done for being so generous.

Lol those are fake haha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fake. The only real plants are anubias, hornwort and moss. :)

Zoidburg what's those stem plants the short bunches ? Reapens? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's really generous of you, thank you. I have a few things I want to get from Newbreedaquatics though and I am thinking of getting the Xiao Mi pen.

The cut PVC makes them look like a genuine river biotope. Lol If you run a knife around the ends it would remove the burrs for a cleaner look and is pretty easy.

I recently won some really cool prizes including a new tds pen. You can have my old one if you want, it still works fine. Idk maybe that's a hassle haha and it's easier to buy one off eBay. But I would like to see my old one put to use by someone.

Had a 90 gallon tank that was 5' long... Exact dimensions were 60 L x 18 W x 20 H Started out with about 20 shrimp in that tank, give or take. Didn't have any issues with the males finding the females. Males *will* swim all over the tank looking for that female!
