JMc Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 Starting a new venture. Always had a large tank with large fish! I want to do something different so its going to be a shrimp tank. This is my tank, its a 150 gallan tank. It has 3 AC 110's for filtration which is more than enough. I'm looking for suggestions for plant types, substate planting. Anyting that will make this tank more shrimp friendly. Dont be shy to comment. Its what im looking for. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILikeAsianBooty Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 some moss or fissiden would look nice on the wood. plants will grow well with osmocote...I wouldnt dose with ferts unless there shrimp friendly. also what lighting are you use? that may affect the plant selection.

chappy6107 Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 what are your water parameters: tds kh gh ph will you be trying to use tap water or will you be using RO water remineralized with a shrimp remineralizer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMc Posted July 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 Well....im on city water so tap water is my preference as its the easiest. I will test and post results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would try to lower the flow of the Aquaclears as they currently look abit too strong for the shrimp but other than that you should be good to go if youre keeping Neos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
