Stunning scape there! I was wondering if you are still considering having some weaping moss on the top branches?

I've always have problems with shrimp in my tanks, they never seem to be able to survive so best of luck with yours!

You're having some bad luck with the regs aren't you...

I would run it the same yes - stagger by 2 hours.

Its the same reg cazzie that was leaking. I sent it back and they return a new one broken. I want a refund and then i will buy one from the forums i think.

I went around to the guys house for the shrimp as mentioned yesterday and came away with this ....

2 Japonica Shrimp
2 Plecs, The very smaller type. Name has gone
4 Cherry Shrimp
7 Sterbai Corydoras

1kg of Lava Stone
6 bags of Mixed Dry Ferts
3 Bubble Counters
1 Propagation Box
1 Shrimp Net
1 Pair of Tweezers
Lots of mixed Plants and a piece of bogwood full of mixed Java Fern. The wood and fern was not very healthy so i binned it in the end.
