Well, I don't have a dedicated shrimp tank, I would like to see yours! Please list plants, hardscape, and shrimp. Any tank. I have heard of Berta bowls with one RCS to massive 80 gallon colonies! Did I mention I want pics? Thanks! :):D

Here's me 20 gallon yellow neo / CRS tank. I have java moss, peacock moss on driftwood, cholla log, subwassertang, little bit of guppy grass, and 2 x 20 gallon sponge filters. I'm changing out the substrate next week to fluval shrimp stratum. And it's magical. It's an upside down tank, lol

Here are my current ones, again, I tried pretty and scaped and it just didn't work out for my needs:) So here is crappy and functional (for me!) First tank is a 3 gallon that houses CRS, CBS, Goldens and Taiwans. SEcond tank is Mr Aqua 12g Long Tibee tank. 3rd tank is our son's crayfish tank with about 50 or more PFRs and Supremes in there (though some are reverting back to crappy cherries on that white sand).

I won't clean this thread up a second time.

Keep it respectful or find another outlet, folks.

This is a family-friendly forum and you are expected to treat every person on this forum with respect whether you like them or the tanks they keep.

You don't have to be an adult but you're expected to act like one on this forum.

Given how many different styles of layouts there are, and how many levels of experience, NO ONE should ever feel--or be made to feel--bad sharing their work.

Here's my cherry shrimp tank. Low-tech, medium light and set-up for minimal maintenance requirements.

3g JBJ Picotope
substrate: fluorite
hardscape: local pink granite, one large piece mopani
plants:
crypts, cardamine lyrata, anubia nana petite, mini-bolbitis, xmas moss, dwarf baby tears, spikey guppy grass, frogbit, probably still some duckweed and dwarf pennywort in there as well.
Stock: cherry shrimp, 1x olive nerite

Stocking is *very* low at the moment as I'm slowly clearing out the cherry culls/mixed offspring before bringing in some more FPR's to go with the 3 females that I got from a mostly DOA shipment a couple months ago.



Did have some riccia mats (see album for past pictures) but ended up removing them as not being worth the constant trimming.
