How many harlequins have you got atm? And what actuall size is it?

 

[coldcazzie]

14.

And the dimensions are 24*12*15 which is about 70l but with substrate and wood etc I reckon probably only the equivalent of 24*12*11, which is about 50l. Hmmm, perhaps not. I'll just stick with the additional shrimp colony as the next addition.

14 Harlequins in that sized tank? Blimey i'm worrying about adding 2 more in my 180.

Heh, I've those 5 crypts you sent me floating around it, and a bunch of crypt retrospiralis, which I don't know whether I'm going to use or not. Keep looking for shrimplets, can't see any, but not so many berried females so I'm guessing there are some, they're just hiding!
Java ferns are still tiny, crypt growth is slow, but I am noticing it. CAn't decide whether to keep the P.helferi in here or not. Not because it's doing badly, but because I want to put it in the 180 and make a nice clump...

Yeah, they actually suit it just right. Glad I didn't get the extras off Scott now

While your taking pics of the 180 hun you may aswell do this to and show us the progress

Ok...

Crypt growth around behind the wood:

Shrimps on moss/wood

Was trying to show the crypts down the back but picture's turned out a bit warped
