Here is a quick video of this cube tank, with the CPDs and Pigmy Corys getting about. Enjoy.
Looks fantastic, nice buces
Love the look of this tank, its great inspiration for the look I'm after for mine
Looks awesome Colm! Your tank was a big inspiration for my jungle cube
Had you fed them with a really small food item? That is what they do when you feed them micro-worms.The activity of the Pygmy corydoras really caught my eye this evening
Hi all, Had you fed them with a really small food item? That is what they do when you feed them micro-worms.

If you don't mind my asking, where did you get your ferts from?Thanks with this tank I am dosing a all-in-one macro micro, it is a fairly weak fert looking at how much each 5ml dose increase NPK but suits low demanding plants ( the fert is actually sourced from a UK website, posted over to me in Australia)
Here are the specs taken from their website
I do find that the solution does go cloudy (precipitation maybe?) after a few weeks, lately I have been making the solution weaker (15g of fert mix to 500ml of distilled water) and this seems to be doing better.

They really like any of the three small nematodes, <"Micro, Banana or Walter worms">. I think my cultures are probably all Banana Worms now, as they are the most productive.really need to try get my own live foods going, thats something ive never done.
It is a beautiful tank,loved it.Did you cut moss balls at all or they just have spread themselves ?Thinned out this tank for the first time, not to bad for almost 2 years!

I use rolled oats as the feeding medium, in supermarket "coleslaw" tubs. They are pretty low maintenance.

How do you find the CPDs in a 30cm cube? What ratio do you have male / female? Do you get any aggression issues?
Are there still shrimp in there with them?
