adding old sea mud rock is a good idea. not for mineral rock. You can control what it release. I rather you use mosura mineral plus to control your GH

I'm also setting up a 4ft tank to keep my poor sakuras. But I'll be using undergravel filter. Have not used it before for shrimps so dunno how well it will work, but at least there's no risk of shrimps getting sucked into the filtration system. Good luck with yours!

Really envy on the room temp of 26C you have. My room temp will hit 30C if there is no chiller. Anyway, all the best to your good 2ft tank.
