Incredible photos!

Thanks for the advice, I wasn't aware that they would not repair, I will remove them tonight. Do I literally just remove the leaves themselves, or do I take the shoots too?

Ignore the somewhat ill looking anubius to the left of the pic, I am inbetween lighting units and it is suffering! Also, please pardon the crappy image quality, was taken with my camera phone, but I will get some better pics soon. shrimptank1.jpg Currently in the process of growing lots of moss alon...

Thanks guys. I felt like such an idiot when I went back into the shop where I got the from and I was explaining to the guy bout the green rocks and the copper and he said "Ah yeah, were they swimming along and then all of a sudden they'd jerk harshly and flick across the tank?", so I was l...

Seems like the offending item may have been a green rock I had in the tank that was leaking copper into the water. Purely speculation of course, but I have removed the rock and now I'll monitor. In brighter news, one of my females DEFINITELY is pregnant. Looking very healthy - must be at least 30 eg...

I'm giving 1 pellet a day to 5 shrimp.

Sorry Allex, I meant the furry looking stuff covering that object at the back of the tank. What is that?

What plant is it that is giving that grass appearance? I've love to recreate that in my tank.

Yes, that is great news Mustafa! I look forward to seeing (and using!) this new section.

^Yes, I noticed.

Excellent!

So what invertebrates do you have in there?

Pardon my ignorance, but what kind of shrimp are those?
