Just went thru this Journal from start / finish.  Beautiful tanks!  I just love the look of a tank full of CRS decorated up nicely.

Wondering if you were ever able to resolve the algae issue in the Saluwasi tank?  If so, how?

 

Again, great tanks, happy shimp, great photos!

Please take this as a compliment.  I hate you.  Grrrr.   I have only been keeping shrimp since the beginning of this year.  So I am still a rookie.  Then it does not help I have a hard time learning or remembering things because of the meds I am on for my bum back.  I am so jealous of your tanks and your crystal shrimp.  WoW they look so beautiful and healthy.  I am so jealous.  I have been having some success with my orange, cherries and yellow's.   Oh and now ghost/cherry shrimps.  They are turning out to be awesome.  They are cherries but with a hunched back/tail like ghosts have and turning out to be a beautiful red color.  

Well to sum things up.  Awesome aquariums.  A++++

Wow, great tanks. Your plants in DSC 5795 are outstanding. Very well maintained. This is not easy. You are probably spending a lot of time gardening.

NICE. I LIKE.
