Earlier this year I decided to re-home and give away my main setup (180L) and focus on this little shrimp tank. It was previously used as a quarantine tank (approx 20L) but now is home to about 30 to 40 cherry shrimp (up from 15ish when I started).

Cool tank! Do you do co2 injection? I want some sort of ground cover for my tank, but I don't want to do co2. I have a small starter tank about 4.2gal /16 L
Thanks. It's all very low maintenance with only some Seachem Flourish added every couple weeks.
The substate is compost topped with fine gravel and some clay/peat balls.
The plant covering the bottom is vallisneria but it seems to spread out instead of growing tall, probably too much light but I'm not really sure.
Got it, thank you :)
Whatever you do make sure to post photos on the community!
I will!! Just did a full water change and I wanna get my tank settled a bit first. It's embarrassingly new and a bit biotic, haha. I want it to look better first :)
