bro, if you dont plan to plant much stem plants then go get some More's lava rock (S size). and get the PH slightly higher. cherries color will improve.  ^^

you mean going with bare-bottom ?
I maybe will try to get some magic seed to try.

by now my cherries is on plastic tank in balcony for quite a long period already.

if your main aim is aquascaping with fishes and later onto shrimp, go for ADA, ADA soil have the best nutrients ratio,
however if you mainly into shrimp then goes for sl aqua nature soil for caridina types shrimp and sl aqua sulawesi lava for neocaridina type,
different is nature soil are acidic while sulawesi lava substrate are alkaline.

Thanks bro arrow.
Anyhow I already got ADA soil. Btw wanna ask the magic seed, do they need intense lightning ?
