Just basic list of thing you may need.

1. Tank
2. Filter (I using Hang On Filter with crushed media in there and sponge attached to the intake pipe)
3. Light (Clip on PL)
4. Fan (I not using because mine in aircon room)
5. Soil (Recommend to have 2.5-3 inches depth. Mine are 3 inches deep)
6. Plant (I recommend spiky moss tied on dw in there)

So all you need is to properly landscaping your layout with the dw and fill up with water to run.

Basically the rest are the same as fish keeping. Water properly cycled and shrimps are ready to go.

This is my tanks setup. All are just simple setup without chiller/fan and no CO2.

Center tank is my cherry tank which is smaller than a 1 feet cube tank. And they are producing like bunnies in there.

Thanks... shrimp tank in the making liao.

Bro Koji. Yr collection of water creatures (Aros to shrimps) are amazing.
