I try to keep the water 72-73 degrees. The moderate growth rate in that temp works well for me.

Sorry about the focus/clarity I'm still learning how to video. The video is maybe a bit too long. I'm still learning how to edit on iMovie on my MAC.

The Amano shrimp is sitting on an Algae wafer (4:06 it falls). The Cherry barbs are nibbling on a pc of Seaweed sheet. PetSmartCos sell them for Salt water fish. I'm pretty sure they are simply Nori wrap sheets used to make Sushi. I cut a 1" x 4" strip and secure it to a plastic coated paper clip. Everyone in that tank is an algae eater and they all love the Seaweed. I feed that once a wk. or if friends visit.

There's a pic in this thread back a page to so.

Thanks for the complements.
