dont know.. hahaaaa...

planning to go 88 marts or the tmn mutiara lfs for more plants or maybe shrimp...

Guys - any tips on how to create the white sandy path or river? Planning to scape one, dunno if it will be challenging?

haha... if duwan the tank then give me the shirmp la... haha...
by the way, you wan moss? you got extra riccia ar?

creatig a path or river damn easy..

creating a GOODLOOKING path or river is not easy.. lol

use like a plastic sheet or strips to laydown the pathway to seperate soil and white sand..

pour in white sand and takeaway the plastic seperator..

hard to explain.. just google "creating white sand path in aquascaping" or something sure can find journals.

not much rcs left lo... plan to transfer all to main tank...
moss dun wan laa... last time gave alot to my friend... riccia last month sell all to 1 forumer adi... soli laa.... haha...

Am thinking of making the white pathway also but not sure if that is a good decision with cories in my tank.....scared they move the sand around too much...prob need to use pebbles or something as divider after setting the sand down

Riccia give away ~~ trade for fire moss .. ^^ anyone? muahaha...

Problem is how fine the two substrate are... If the white sand is finer than the soil you using... It can seep through the soil and bit by bit you lose that path...

Darn... Bought a snakeskin guppy from Alive Aquarium yesterday, and found it dead this morning without his tail and head... Have no idea how the hell that happened... Same thing happened to my last male guppy...

What Michanz said is IF you wants all your shrimps are safe without been devoured, better to just setup a shrimp-only tank.

Your 3feet tank got what else fish inside? yes, your bigger shrimp might be living else, what about shrimplets, did u really go to count them?

I want riccia too.

What fish eats ur shrimp?

Thats the challenge is it? After awhile with the current tank, the hand is itchy to try something new.

Now, should I plant first, let it stabilized first before forming the path? Need to do some googling!

You'll need to introduce new shrimps into your shrimp tank every couple of generations. Else their genes will be weak from too much interbreeding.

IMO.. google.. research everything.. then only form path then plant.. better

Agree ^^

Shd I get Shirui sand or white silica sand? I have seen LFS selling Shirui sand, but can I get white silica sand easily? Which one will be better?

Anyway just planning to create a pond, not a path or river...

a pond?? wow that's a new one.. for me

LOL how you guys buy plants you have in mind? Im no expert in aquatic plants so I usually just go to LFS as buy the ones that look like the ones I want.. Since if I give them the name of the plant I bet most LFS workers will get confused...

If I remember correctly, Shirui sand will look more natural. If you're getting silica sand, make sure it's really it. Else you'll end up with sand that will alter your pH.

i got source for solenoid valve at subang.. for rm75..
+ manual regulator for around 50 at LFS

maybe i'll try later..

guys, any lobang for a cheap 2footer cabinet/stand? not those besi one, looking for a real good wood cabinet, more like those ADA ones
