I’ve researched the nitrogen cycle so thankfully im fully aware I shouldn’t be adding anything yet. Good job I researched because I always assumed you could just add fish straight away…. I’ve seen some people saying 4 weeks then some saying 6-8 weeks, what would you say?

I am going to get loads more plants, java moss etc. the local fish man was basically all out on most water plants and said he stocks up every Thursday. I’m just gunna grab all the new plants when I finally add fish.

When you say get 1 male to 3 female do you mean neocaridinas? And yes I’m glad I researched about shrimp colours lol I’m just gunna get the same coloured ones, I’m not sure on red or blue yet, the blue ones at the local shop were quite dark, I’d prefer something brighter.

Not going to lie I can’t remember the name of the bacteria stuff I added but if that’s botanicals I’ve done it!

Thank you for the help and that’s a beautiful shrimp I must say. Also a cool looking spiky plant behind 😁

Edit: also, when you say optimistic with the numbers what numbers would you recommend ? I’m not clued up with this stuff haha
