looking good.
I have a 10gal RCS tank and I recently got a heater to keep temp at 78F and that is what really got them going.

How many do you have? How many berried female shrimp? what is your gravel?

The gravel looks like Eco-Complete. That's what I have.

they are called marimo ball. It's a type of algae(good type) that helps with algae problems. Never had them before but I would purchase some in the future.
