darn u, sponge only cost rm1.20...so save ka...hahaha
what filter did u use?

today gonna set up breeder tank for rcs...hahahahaha

try different angle, before i put fan, average temp is 30-31, after fan installed, temp. drop to 28 on average. try different angle. plus, try put you tank near your fan. it help a bit.


21-25 can keep crystal shrimp!!

put your luck in it too man...hahaha

looks like java moss to me.

this is what happening to us. sometimes, shop assistant doesnt know what time of moss they are selling. If supplier said it's xmass moss, that's what they should tell buyer. when they sell it in small patch, we cant figure out exactly what type of moss is it.

maybe taiwan moss? or mini java moss..NA also selling mini xmass moss. out of stock already.

wahhh...so fast! keep a bit for me lor

monitor your gH as well. coral chip will increase GH also. my tank previously have 5.8 pH, which is not good for BB growth. then i increase my pH by throw in 7 pieces of coral chip in my HOB. it slowly increase in a week to 7.2. after few weeks, then i realize that gh also increase to 60 (before this it only show low gh reading).Test with API test kit. cherry need a bit hard water, but not that hard...
so please monitor your water parameter for your tank properly if you guys dump in coral chip in your tank.

only bought 1 test kit at moment...
what i heard is API is not accurate...huhu
but at least i can monitor my water parameter...better than nothing...i dont know which one is good..there only few choice to buy...

dont put them together..unless you have something to do with guppy in that tank (to clear worm @ planaria). if not, it will disturb ur cherry ( sometimes kill em).

flame, christmas need lower temp to grow. java is the only moss that grow better in normal temperature (29-30).
want to speed up? take out ur moss and put it in the tank that have co2 and cooler water, after in grow lush and bushy, put it back in ur shrimp tank...

co2 & cooler temperature does help moss growing. mine got bushy after 2 month only...3 month become jungle already...have to trim down, sell it to my friend who want to start moss tank.(poison him kaw2 to start moss tank..and did it! )

my coral moss doesnt grow since it need cooler temperature..25 below...now it only "survive" in my tank...huhu

im one of the victim....huhuhu

all my shrimp gone in 2 day...very sad....

to remove pesticide effect, soak your plant with high pH water bout 2-48hours. then run with tap water. try put 1 shrimp in bucket to see is it ok or not..

got sudden amonia spike in my shrimp tank...maybe leftover boiled cabbage...huhuhu

still monitoring them...got tiny red worm in my tank oso...donno where its came from...haih...

in soil...can see the path it create...hoho..wiggling in the soil..red color..very thin..3mm long only..

arrow, what is ur reading for ammonia level?i already done 30% WC, my reading still at 2ppm last night..but those cherry eat like there's nothing happen..

huhu...maybe the spike came from relocate my DW. only got moss and anubias only..

LOL

rotala definitely sucker plant. 1 month become jurasic park already.


its 4pm...teatime!

arrow..do you remove the shrimp 1st before vacuum your soil?

ps: Do shrimp will be more vivid color when the light turn on?

i think someone in this forum have same problem with u...forgot already his name...aiyo..
