Not fancy, but it's fun! A tank for breeding blue dream neocardinas.
I ended up having a berried shrimp pretty quickly, she made a lot of dark blue shrimplets so I figured I'd start my own line.
Here's my tank:
10gallon Aqueon - $1/gallon Petco special - $10 total!
Hygger sponge filter - Less than $20!
A piece of driftwood
Some stones and a sandy substrate (I have another tank started with eco-complete that I'm going to move all the shrimp over to once it's more established)
Hornwort keeps my nitrates at zero
And some other plants that will go in other tanks eventually.
Currently there are three adult blue dreams and somewhere between 30-40 shrimplets who are almost 3 weeks old.
