Thanks I've put a lot of effort in making this possible a lot of is is due to my girlfriend who helps out on every project. As well as all the support I get from here, facebook, and my local clubs as well as all the shrimp and plants everyone had bought off me to make my shrimp room happen. Much appreciation to you all.

I believe I spent $200 in wood, $60 in screws, $450 on tanks, $160 in sponge filters, $30 on air pump, $80 for the closed loop system, substrate varys from tank to tank $3 to $20 for a ten. haven't done lights yet. Not sure if you wanted full price of the dry wall and floor remodel as well. Also that's just the fish room not all my tanks and racks in my living room.

Everything is coming along slowly these pups have slowed me down a bit. Need to finish setting up 9 more ten gallons and the 3 40 gallon tanks and the fish room will be fully set up just need to get some leds. Have a 55 gallon cycled for red tigers just haven't planted it yet. Have 2 ten gallons cycling the sl aqua method. I have been feeding my shrimp more recently seeing if my shrimp will grow faster ect. So far no improvements but will give it some more time.

What are you feeding? I see only snowflake? Try more non-soy-protein rich foods.

I normally just use the snow flake for when I'm catching shrimp because all of my shrimp will come out for snow flake. Other foods don't have as much as a turn out. I feed a wide variety of food though almost all of Hans food, all aqua, lowkeys, mk, and a few more.

So my cat had kittens on Friday and i still cant believe it she's still a kitten herself we took her to get fixed and the vet came back to tell us she's prego. I found this cat on the size of a house during a clean up job and was never able to find a good home for her so what better home then mine. Till she ate a killies fish and then an axolotl baby and she quickly became an out door cat. She made my tiki bar her home and I guess she found a boyfriend real quick. But when I found her she barely had any teeth and was very tiny and we'll so now my kitten has kittens.

Just a few updates the 36 ten gallon rack is set up and that includes 9 tens with sl aqua soil. Cycling two more tens with sl aqua as well in the hallway. My 55 gallon is fully cycled going to scape it and add red tigers when I can. I have everything I need to build another grow bed for my pond,  need glass cut to make sump for 190 gallon, when I can I'll get more crushed coral for 2 more 40 gallon sulawessi tanks, and about to set up a 40 with black Diamond for something probably orange rillis their booming.
