That was what i regretted after making the tank. Hahaha. I understand about the clogging. Thanks for the heads up

Really glad to have contributed to your interest in shrimps! Hehehe.. Looks good bro! Love the low height of the tank! However, you might want to lower the water level to ensure that the shrimps won't cross over the partitions!

No offend bro but the more I look at your setup the more I worry for your soil to clog before water from the first chamber to the last chamber where the canister intake is. Soil are not gravel thus clogging is much more easiler... Since it's a new setup... I feel it will be good you have a redesign for this tank. Either getting the tank maker to remove the existing partition and fix with a full length one and run those partitioned chamber individually... Maybe bros who are running this kinda setup will share with you how their's is running?

Like most bro mentioned it will clog easily. U May wan to consider to make the top part of ur partition with additional layer fine mesh so water can go through and shrimp won't go over to other partition.

How is the water flow from the canister? If is too slow then chilling will not be so efficient, meaning the chiller will run a long time to chill the water to the temperature that you want.

If the mesh is not wet they won't climb over.
