Nice tank dismalorb!

It looks great with the driftwood and live plants. In the third pic, what kind of plant is just to the right of the cray? It looks really cool.

Hehe, I recognize you from somewhere familiar dismalorb!

Hehe, yeah, your llittle photo looks mighty familiar as well! I love my little DPs.

Thank you very much. I've actually added alot more since then; I'll post some more photos in a bit.

The plant to the right of the cray of what was sold to me as Java Moss, but could be String Moss.... Either way, it's some sorta moss. I used the "close up" setting on my camera, so it makes it look a little larger than life.

Glad to hear your DPs are doing well

Ah ok, I thought it might be Java moss.

I'll have to get some for my Glass shrimp project I am working on.

So you added more Dwarf Crayfish? How many are in there now?

Oh nice! What kind of project would this be? Breeding? Hybridizing?

I did add more Dwarf Crays. There's got to be at least 40 in there right now. Some of the newer ones are striped, and one of them is almost black. It's beautiful.

I just went to Petco and bought some "oak" trim 20G long they had there on sale for $20 and got a divider for it, so hopefully I can seperate the different types into the other tank and begin breeding. Maybe I can "create" a completely black species.

Wow, that be a lot of crayfish!

The project is just going to be breeding glass shrimp, I never thought of hybridizing though. You shall see a post about is soon enough, although I don't want to go too far off topic about it since this is the Crayfish forum.

Wow, what a steal on the tank + divider! Now you can get even more crayfish
