I'm sure you already have the answer already.

I am lazy to change the soil, or even topping up. Hope this way can do as well.

Did some test and got the following result.

*Latest pH is 7.0



*Ammonia at 0 mg/l



*Nitrite at 0 mg/l



*Nitrate at 5 ~ 8 mg/l

As for snail i think i can don't need to buy already i happen to see that i have baby apple snail in the tank i wonder how many will turn out after the cycling process

Or maybe i should get those fresh water puffer fish to eat the snail egg??? hmmm......

puffer might eat your shrimps?

he doesnt even have shrimp in his tank. His still in the cycling period. Puffer will eat shrimplets and possibly attack shrimps.

Got myself a late christmas gift as I bought 23 CRS (Mosura / hino). Over the weekend, 3 wasn't able to make it and left with 20 CRS now in my tank.

pH value is currently 6.8. I shall update with photos in a few days time.

woot. huge pump n chiller u have there.

I had took out the bag of peat from the tank. Currently pH maintaining at 6.8. I will monitor closely to any changes.

With 1 more dead CRS yesterday, the number of death increases to 4. Currently there are 19 CRS (Hino / Mosura). I have been adding Mosura Shrimps Tonic to try to prevent any further death. Also dosing Mosura Mineral Plus to aid in fine tuning of the tank water. I shall be dosing Mosura Bioplus tonight.

Below are some blur photos (Nokia N82) taken during feeding. If anyone got a good and cheap camera (that can take macro shots) in mind, please PM me. I might consider to buy one. =)
