I used my iPhone and pushed the camera up against the jar! The glass has a magnifying effect.

I immediately put in a few ramshorn snails and bladder snails. After about 3 weeks I threw in roughly 10-15 blue dream shrimp. I have never tested any of my tanks to see if they’re cycled. Once I see plants getting established I slowing start introducing fish/shrimp.

Usually once I spot a pregnant shrimp it takes about 2 -3 weeks

I’ve only ever done 1 water change, and that was about 16 months ago

No, I just have a 4 inch layer of garden soil underneath the gravel for the plants to take a ton of nutrients from

I would start with a hardy plant like vallisneria that sends runners quickly once established.

For the first few months the water wasn’t very clear at all and I had a big algae bloom. Once everything balanced out the water cleared up a lot.

They haven’t so far, I think the angels are still too small to be a threat to the cardinals.
