Just got back into the hobby after a few years off. Here is a tank im currently growing out a bit before i start tossin in some shrimp.

We had the floors redone the other week and some sadly didn’t like the move when we drained the tank for part of the day so it’s a tad sparse from its normal population.

Added a 3rd 5 gallon tall to the counter and 3D printed 2 dividers to make it look like one unit. Turned out nice I think.

Set up a little 2.5 gallon tank to keep some shrimp at my new office. Stones came from a trout stream in North GA. Should look great when it’s all grown in. All in one Fluval tank setup seems convenient.

Nothing crazy, this is my Beta pal Tangerine. If I sit in my chair he will swim over to where I am and hang out with me until I leave.

We also have a smaller tank with a few mystery snails which, the bigger ones are the coolest thing ever to watch

Moved a bunch of shrimp around tonight to start some new lines and I gave the Bonsai tank a good trimming. This “Tree” is two species of wood in about 10-15 different pieces that I meticulously fitted and glued together using the tissue paper/super glue/saw dust method. I then applied Christmas moss and Marimo moss balls for the “foliage”. I wish had done a video of the build, It was quite the project. The tree and rocks are all one unit fitted and glued together as well to create the little shrimp cave in the front.

I also cleared out the Green Jade shrimp that were in this tank and I’m going to replace them with something brighter and easier to see.
