I have a hailea filter running in the back corner hence why the sponge is so small

Very nice

Do you have just shrimp in the tank?

 

[AusPleco]

yeah, i used to have endler guppies but they were harrassing the shrimp and i found they werent coming out much. So i removed them and put them in my 4ft peppermint tank and now the shrimp are coming out more

Got me 4 dark berried females today from LFS and 1 decent colored male.

Traded in my 10 endlers which were harrassing my females and got to pick 6 cherry shrimp. Not much but thats why i picked berried females with deep red to increase gene pool and is more for my trade in
