Picked up a 20L Gonna divide into 4 :]

Petco DPG sale starts tmr FYI. Now to get 3 10's or divide a 20L in 4 sections.
Gonna be picking up Spotted head red pinto, CRS(what prl?), and a zebra only tank after the 2m cycle.

Bring your tds down to atleast 220... it's kinda high tbh. Where did you get them from? Honest I'd never put my shrimps with fish.

Aww poor thing. You could try a salt dip too. Thats what worked for me in the past. Didnt know no planaria works on those too. So glad theres a forum, we learn something everyday.

Scutariella or leeches?  Either way, I'd pick up some "No Planaria".  It'll make your tank cloudy, but it's shrimp safe and should take care of both.  It should be pretty plant safe...  
 
What do you have for plants and do you use CO2?  It doesn't hurt to increase water oxygenation while using meds.  Maybe cut back on any CO2 you're using and pop in an additional airstone...
 

Tank is doing much better this time around.

- thanks ^^
- momma is a lil washed from her molt but boy is she big. My new blue bolt only tank
 

-Welcome home boyz and girlz
-Once I get my rack these will go into a 20L. Will put some in my main tank aswell.

 
 

My blue mosura females

Just throw in a piece of spinach in there atleast 2x a week and a protein treat 1x.

Well so far so good. Didn't loose a single TT. Very active shrimps compared with oebt's. I'm keeping a close eye on water parameters after my disappointing experience with oebt's. 

caridina shrimps

pH will depend mostly on the depth. Ada goes to 5.5 I've heard. Sl is around 6.4. I use sl aqua and it buffers below 6 for me. ADA is more geared towards plant and the cycle can take from 1m with a seeded filter to 2-3. Sl and controsoil barely leech any ammonia.
 
Go with sl

Rack allllllllllllmost complete.  Put in yhe hygger air pump today and that thing is super quiet.  Blown away by how quiet it is.  No clue how long it will last but with that price tag I'm not too worried.  Three tanks are cycling up top.  Started one more cycling on the middle shelf.  SL aqua cycling method, big fan.  Added some black pintos to my black TB tank so interested to see how that goes.  More updates coming soon!  

Yeah, cant wait to see what they look like in 1-2m from now

A little gem that popped up in a black pinto order at work. Its metallic purple with a zebra pattern.

DIY PVC loop. this should be your only option.  any of those manifolds will need constant attention for pressure adjustments.  
A loop system ensures even pressure to all valves.
 
check out teds YT video. super simple to make can even be small for just a few tanks.
