Blue jelly island :-) journal finished

Looks really nice tim, I bet your shrimp love it in there! Any jelly babies yet?

Thanks James, unfortunately no babies I lost all but one of the jellies through the summer due to the extreme temps 🙁 a couple of berried shrimp dropped eggs before hatching but no babies, I've added a few tiger shrimp now which seem to be doing ok so far.

That's a great shame mate. Hopefully your Tigers will breed. You could always get more at Christmas!😉

Well I'm thinking 12ltrs is a little small for stability so I'm working hard on the wife allowing a shrimp rack 🙂 it's doable but I may have to let a couple of other tanks go first, then I'll give the jellies a better shot

Yeah I find stability in my Mini M difficult to maintain especially when it comes to breeding.
Definitely makes all the difference with bi-weekly Or tri-weekly small water changes.

They like it fresh!

Hi folks, not seen a shrimp in this for a while so I'll be taking it down at the start of next week as a scape it's looking ok, I'll be trying to get a good final image over the next few days with my daughters dslr, took about 50 odd this morning, this is one I thought was ok.

Opinions great fully received.
As always cheers for looking 🙂

I think it looks great!

All I would say is just try to get the equipment out of the final shot. 🙂

Sorry it did not work out with the Jellies,not easy in the small tank to keep it stable(know well from my own expierence).Very clean and well defined nano scape 🙂 Cheers mark

Thanks mark, stability has been difficult to achieve think I'll be sticking to cherries for a while on the shrimp front they seem to be the only shrimp I can get to thrive.

They are lovely little fish James but I have some new rocks and a scape in mind involving moss and anubias bonsai and maybe some bucephalandras, thanks for the comments and following the journey guys and gals
