3 ft tank. Think can hold thousands of prl shrimps in a few months time.

Just a small update.

Since the water parameters have been stable for 1 week and I seen quite a few molting, I assumed the tank is quite stable now.

I have since took out the 10 commandos, passed it to my friend and added a few PRL (4Female/3Male) from Aquarist Chamber.

17 hours since PRL were added, no casualty so far. Finger crossed!

Wow. So fast start with PRL already.

Can take pictures and update.

Only 1 of them were infront of the tank for a nice shot.

Now I'm battling with brown hair algae on my weeping moss. Every 2 day I need to use toothbrush to comb it out.

I know adding amano shrimp will help with it, but will they be very aggressive towards other shrimps

Wow! Nice shot! Beautiful PRL you have there, hope they breed for you soon.

One amano shrimp is enough to do the job. You choose a small size one. I kept one before with my pool of crs and it was not aggressive

Some updates:

This is the algae that been annoying me. The grow rate is damn crazy, every day I have to brush it off. Haven't got the time to get amano shrimp yet.

Stroll in the park

Panda loach finally resting. Super active 24/7, hard to get a shot of them.

Full tank shot
