[Gryphon] My shrimp journal
Started my shrimp keeping journey in office with a 20cm cube tank keeping low grade CRS and upgraded to a 1 feet cube within 3 months
Now after my CO's approval , I have just setup a 2 feet tank in the living room. Equipment are as follows: - 2 feet x 15" x 15" 8mm tank with cabinet - Eheim 2026 canister filter - Hailea 150A chiller - 2 feet LED light Soil: Benibachi with fulvic grain Flora: Driftwoods with mini Christmas moss or US Fissidens, hornworts, Tiger lily and Marsilea Hirsuta in the foreground Under the Benibachi soil which has fulvic grain and I added BT-9 and ADA bacter ball as well as crushed mineral rock and Boneowild Bebi. [I know I am very Kiasu ] Cycled my tank for 2 weeks as I am using Benibachi soil with many added bacteria and washed my filter sponge of my office tank in the new tank. Then a week later I did 40% water change and added more BT-9, Microlift Special blend, Mosura Mineral plus and Gravidas. Added 3 shrimps last Thursday and they are doing well and one moulted last night. Current parameters: PH: Between 6.1 to 6.2 GH: 4 Temp: Set at 24 Deg |
