Welcome TianYin86,
Im live in Kajang... Sungai Kantan, Kajang there have a Planted Aquarium Shop =)

p/s: I think better to start with RCS 1st Before u go for CRS... until now i still haven start any Shrimp cause tank not yet mature =X already 2 mths my tank

this is because CRS very Sensitive with Water Parameter and Temperature... (correct me sifu if im wrong)
*
wat is RCS and CRS?? and how do i know my tank is mature or not? It seems like i need to pay much on my tank~ haha

@ TianYin,

it's all in the process to a healthy tank.. need to let your tank cycle first ma.. being impatient would only lead you to a delayed or immediate crash.. Some people go around saying, I put my fish in since day 1 also no problem! I dare you to check back with him in 2~3 months time. Also, if the tank looks well, ask him of his troubles during the months.

My tank doesnt need much care now. In fact, i just look at it once a week and WC once a month now ( tank and system is close to 1 year old ) why? Proper start-up. Never had any MAJOR algae issue as well ( THIS IS A MAJOR POINT)

not to take things personally,

" GOOD THINGS NOT CHEAP, CHEAP THINGS NOT GOOD "

And never expect miracles. You need to be hardworking enough to have a good looking tank.

p/s
CRS = Crystal Red Shrimp
RCS = Red Cherry Shrimp.

For further information. GOOGLE

Hehehehe~ hope tomolo or sunday i can get my aquarium and soil and plant.. of coz n filter. haha~

Proper start up?

Add soil,
add plants ( as many plants as u can.)
Slowly add water...
then use a good filter preferably canister ( big enough 1 la )
let it all run..

LETS SAY YOU ARE USING ADA SOIL..

Here's my secret hehee..
Day 1, err above step lor.. water in and out till clear.. remember to fill slowly
Day 2, WC 50%
Day 3 WC 20%
DAY 7 week 1, WC 50%
Then every week after, 20~30% WC ( once a week )

having c02 is a must for all the higher maintenance plants.. with proper lighting.. and PROPER TEMPERATURE hehe.. ( enquire within or just go to www.my-mac.net)

Most important equipment is filter. smile.gif Why ? ( Well, here we look at the Nitrogen cycle )

ONLY ADD FAUNA at MINIMUM, after 1 week.. DOnt suddenly add a huge number.. slowly.. bit by bit weekly..

For anything else, GOOGLE. haha.
