10 gallon shrimp tank


Hi all,

This is my 10 year-old planted tank. I turned it into a crystal red tank 2 years ago. Started the colony with 10 C grade and 12 A grade crystal red plus about 4 crystal black. After many generations going low from only around 10 shrimps left to more than 100 of them now! Currently it's infested with spixy snails, and at least 80 juvi crytal red, and many adults.

In the last 10 years, I can never got rid of clado from this tank, after many attempts I gave up. Now I control clado by taking the wood out and soak them in pure H2O2 for 10 minutes. The white bubbles in the pictures are h202 residue after soaking.
