7 Gallons
ph - 6.8
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - very low
EI dosing every other day with a skipped day inbetween

Plants - Anachrias, Water Wisteria, Java Fern, Christmas Moss, Java Moss

Occupants - 30 Red Cherry Shrimp, 1 Oto, 5 Ember Tetras

What do you guys think?

Wow.. nice nano tank you have. With this little tank that you can decorate so beautifully. The Ember tetras may not be a good companion if there is shrimplets in your tank.

So far i've had one "hatching" of new shrimplets and the tetras completely ignored them . Besides, someoen has to keep the populations down

It's looking good! I'm jealous of your HC in the foreground. I still have not tried it again after loosing 5 pots worth on my first go 'round.

Those shrimp look great!

Dave, thats your christmass moss on the left side

I'm glad it's doing well for you. I just removed the rest of mine from my driftwood and tied it to a rock. I've got some fissidens growing out that will eventually take it's place on the wood.
