You should not keep cherry shrimps, as they would xbred with others. Nice setup .

I keep them in normal room temp without fan. But it is in my living room near the window. On a cool and rainy day like this, temp can hit as low as 27.8 Degrees. On a hot day, as high as 29.9 Degrees. But they still can tahan.

Yep, those are US mini Fissidens. I tight them up myself but it is kinda messy. Haha.

I agree with you bro. But cherry shrimps were the first inhabitants of the tank and it is hard to try to catch them out. Anyway, i tink i only have 3-5 cherry shrimps in there.

I have a minor problem with my frogbits, they grow too fast!!! Less den a month ago, i sold off 95% of them to a few bros here. And now it has grown back 50%.

Very soothing & nice simple layout.

Healthy mini Fissidens & shrimps.

Did you use any surface skimmer for your tank?.

Thanks for sharing.
