Well here's an update on all that's transpired. It turns out my white bloom decided to become a green algie bloom for reasons beyond me. But with the tireless help from jayc we think we solved it.everything I done in the previous posts didn't work so I sent jayc another photo as things were getting very bad that's when he clocked it as green algie bloom. So off I went to an aquatic centre and bought myself the 24watt Fish R Fun green killing machine sterilizer, put in the tank and 28hrs later there is evidence thet the tank is starting to clear. I will update with photos proberly every two days to show what's happening or every day if there are marked improvement.Again my thanks must go to jayc for staying with me on this, he'sbeen brilliant Cheers for now and lookout for the photos Richie

Hi I'm an animal enthusiast with many frogs snakes and arachnids but it's my first attempt at caring for cherry shrimp..i researched with my girlfriend quite a bit and already set up a planted tank in a nano 2.6gallon aquarium. It will be cycling and until then I just wanted some feedback on how it looks and what y'all think about it? Thankyou ~

So we moved house again (for the last time hopefully - we purchased a house) but we did a complete gut and renovation and I just didn’t have the time to care for the tank.Sold the three footer and now have a simple 30l tank picked up at petbarn. Kept the drift wood, bolbotis, narrow leaf java and some java moss.Shrimp are happy enough but am not noticing the colony growing. Can’t seem to find many of the bigger guys but have lots of mid sized and juvies.Not giving it much care apart from a water change once a fortnight and throwing in the odd almond leaf or pellets.Will give them a bit of carrot or zucchini tomorrow and take a few snaps. Looking to get back into it a bit more now we are fully bedded in the new house. One day I will go back out to a 3 footer or similar but for the time being this will have to do.
