Oh and quickly,
Tank;
25lts
Aqua Soil Substrate
Aqua Clear 20 for filtration
and Twin T'5's for lighting..
 
Looks nice, should grow in well... You should try rig up a DIY Co2 system that connects to the HOB filter, will send your plants nuts...
 
Yea i was thinking about using Co2 but i dont think im going to bother for this tank, its got a good substrate (the aqua soil is a fertilizer in itself) and i add liquid supplement every few days...
Im planning on setting up another tank, which will be larger and ill rig up a Co2 system in that...
 
Good to see you finally got it going mate, looks tops!
Will be good when your plants grow out a bit.
 
So you have shrimps in there??? I like those little red and white shrimps.... cherry shrimps??? i have seen amazing planted aqueariums full of them and they look amazing!

Yeah thats the one i have seen amongst others. There is an amazing aquarium in Richmond too which has the most amazing planted aquariums.
 
Well the Crytal Red Shrimp are the red and white ones, i have 5 of them and im getting 5 more tommorow... Also ive got Red Cherry Shrimp, which are all red, and they have already bred...
Ive also got a crystal red shrimp carrying eggs, so in a week or two i should have some babies!!
 
Ive got my 5 new CRS and ill try and post some pictures up of them within the next few days... Im thinking about getting a nice school of Dwarf Chilli Red Rasboaras to complement the plants as well...
