Pokeshrimp Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Thanks! You planning on using HC or dwarf hair grass or something else? Can't wait to see how they turn out, Iwagumi style tanks is what got me into the hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airriick Posted January 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 I am tempted to use nothing at all lol. I did hc which I'll post pictures of me failing later. I do have dhg but I'm not sure yet. I still have my 12g long to mess with Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokeshrimp Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Nice. I have a 40b with about 1/4 cover in HC used to be almost 1/2 the tank. I kinda wanna tear it out and turn it into a low tech tank. High techs look awesome but require more time than i have. Maybe you can use those clover looking plants, i forget what they're called but they slowly grow a loose carpet that the shrimps appreciate.

airriick Posted January 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Yeah I'm thinking about a low tech carpet. Just near the back end , I want the front end substrate only so I can see shrimplets The struggle between high tech and shrimp tank.

Duff0712 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Monte Carlo might be fun. I believe they are lowish tech? Not 100% sure tho -Duffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airriick Posted January 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 I was looking into rotalas. I guess you can keep them really short? I have dosed flourish and excel with no deaths. Even 6bps co2. Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airriick Posted January 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hm. Found something interesting in my spec v today Looks blue, will probably turn black. Has zebra pattern? If it's a pinto baby it'll be my first one! [emoji16] Sent from my SM-G925V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DETAquarium Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 So hard to be 100% sure but definitely looks like it could potentially be a Zebra Pinto, as you stated most likely will turn black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airriick Posted January 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 So.. Had an issue with my main TB tank.5 DeathsThen 10Decided to move them all to my new tank. Picked up biodigest and dumped it in. Prayed for the best since the tank has only been running for 7 days.Just scooped them into this and poured them in lol.Also added 5ml of seachem paraguard. Worried that might kill the bacteria from biodigest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
