Not sure how any baby shrimplets would do w the tankmates but that's a very nice scape you have. That branch is pretty sweet as well.
My 3 feet of heaven
12 3w cool white leds, cascade 1200 and 2 other 600lph power filters a 400lph power filter running my reactor, 150w heater, diy c02 (yeast), mts soil with black gravel cap( bit of clay dolomite and kno3 mixed in aswell
Livestock
Bunch of tetra's bunch of cherry shrimp, 3 common pleco's
Plants
Hc, rotala, java fern, java moss, anubias nana, wysteria, ludwigia, crypts(one is getting pretty huge haha)
And I think thats about it
Future plans include going pressurised with c02 and a inline reactor for the c02 to get rid of bottle reactor
And maybe another few led's and painting the frame black and making a base surpund thats also black for around the base of the tank
So watta ya reckon?
Im happy with it as it sits so far

So this is tge new and improved scape of the tank
I had a accedent with the saw and broke one of the banches up a bit but i have a bunch of willow moss on its way so that should cover that up nicely heehehe
The equipments changed a little
I have a small stream style wave maker in there instead of the 600lph eyesore the other powerheads still there for overnight oxygen on a timer
The lilypipes are on i got a replacement intake pipe as the original was broken
I ended up pulling all my ludwigia out as it takes over the tank too fast
Anyways enjoy!
