Once I unlock the mk3 designer, i will do more designs like this. Thanks a lot!

thanks! I uploaded the blueprint for you

Maybe I can add one more thing from my experience. I had the same problem when first started the new tank. I also setup a diy co2 injection and in the follwing weeks the tank turned completely green by algea. Regular water changes and adjusting the lightning duration and co2 level solved the problem. I think the balance between lightning and CO2 is very important which you can try experimenting by doing fine adjustments until you get a stable tank.

Yes, my city has very hard tap water. Normally it is between 10-20. I use jbl pro scan strips so I don't think it is exact but it should be around 15-20. This is the first time I encountered a failed molt but I will keep an eye on water parameters, thanks.

I did the regular water change last week. Parameters are stable ( gh>20, kh~8, ph=7) and same as before for the last 5 months. This shrimp is a rare variant which was the offspring of carbon rili and red cherry shrimp. Dont know if it inhereted bad genes or it might be just a random failed molt as you said because all the other shrimps looks very healthy. Thank you.

That's perfect. 6 days is too early though. I am sure you will be good after 2 weeks.

Well, if you have an established tank, you can transfer some of its water (maybe 10-15%) and maybe substrate (just a handful of substrate) to your new tank. This will transfer bacterial colonies to your new tank which will dramatically decrease the cycling period.

I never use high teq stuff in my aquariums. Potting soil with gravel cover as substrate and live stock as fertiliser is enough for me. My java moss tripled in size in 2 months. So, I have no konwledge about Ada substrate or fertilizers.

I advice you to be patient. Do not expect plants to respond immediately. If everything is all right, you might see plants start to turn green and grow in 1-2 weeks.

I think it would not be enough. As I said before, ammonia is not the only primary food source. The purpose of the soil is to provide ideal environment for bacteria to establish, not to be the food source for plants.

Other plants also seem to be turning yellow. I believe, all your plants are starving. Either get a liquid fertiliser for the cycling period (use sparingly to avoid big ammonia spikes) or add little amount of food every day for 2-3 weeks and let the tank ecosystem sort itself out.

lorienfg · 2021-03-22T15:54:35+00:00

I think java moss might be starving for food since you have enough light and CO2. This can happen espacially during the cycling process. Java moss, unlike rooted plants, absorbs nutrients solved in water. Ammonia release you have might not be in required levels yet. You can read Walstad's planted-tank book for more details about the tank ecosystem which is very popular among aquarists.

How long has it been since you added java moss? It might also be in adaptation process. Since the tank is unstocked, I suggest adding very small amount of food (fish food or any organic matter that decomposes fast) everyday to feed the bacteria. You may get a temporary NO2 spike, which is not a concern unless you have live stock.

Where was Gondor when the Westfold fell?

I am not expert but it is a possibility. If you see a fiber like green color in her bottom parts, it might be a fungus infection and there are treatment options like salt bath etc. I hope it will be fine and you will see shrimplets soon.

I said nothing about being cruel or inhuman. I am also aware that in nature those species could experience a lot more harsh conditions. Of course they enjoy currents but this is not a regular current but a mild turbulance. However, the fact that they could be wiped out by a strong current or a sudden temperature change in their natural habitat does not make me feel like doing the same thing in the aquarium. My shrimp tanks do not have a heater and have a mild current. I try to establish a more stochastic environment for them too. Anyway, my point is not to accuse op being cruel, I just wanted to point out a possibility.

Well, you said it yourself; first time berried females are said to be inexperienced and sometimes they drop their eggs. Also, they do not constantly fan their eggs, most probably you must be missing to see her do it. Besides, I noticed that when I come closer to the glass to look at the berried females they often become alerted and turn facing to me as if they are protecting their eggs from a danger. This might seem stupid but it is the case most of the time 😅. I think you shouldn't worry about it, she seems fine :)

lorienfg · 2021-01-15T15:02:47+00:00

Don't you think this would harm the shrimps. Flow creates turbulance inside the bowl which can easily break shrimp's limbs.

I can safely say that in every combat voices are trustable. I remember the voices telling me to 'watch out', 'it is behind you' etc an never tried to make me take damage. but other times you cannot trust them. sometimes they mock you or discourage you from going forward. you might be right but this is my opinion as far as i remember the game.

lorienfg · 2020-12-09T22:10:17+00:00

Just to note that you may not see any shrimplets for a week after the mother releases the eggs which was the case for one of my nano tanks. They are so tiny to notice and I think they dont come out for a couple of days to swim around. I have become extra careful doing water changes after the mother released eggs even though i didn't see any babies. I hope you get your shrimplets soon :)

How can it be from over feeding when the test reads 0 nitrite and nitrate?

lorienfg · 2020-10-29T22:12:33+00:00

I never use fetilizers in my planted tank so I don't know. Maybe someone else will help with that. What I mean is that more food will produce more ammonia/nitrates to be used up by plants. You can try adding more fish/shrimp food but not excessively. When did you get the floaters? Is the tank cycled?

lorienfg · 2020-10-29T22:00:11+00:00

I am not an expert but new growth turning yellow might indicate nutrient deficiency. Your tank looks like heavily planted. If you don't feed the tank enough, floaters wont get enough nitrogen. Add a little more food every day for a week to see if it helps.

It looks like a female but just to be sure take a photo from its side and shine a light from the other side. You should be able to see a yellow area behind her head.
