  1. I like the size of AS Amazonia Powder, as it offers a cleaner look and finish to a planted shrimp tank. My shrimp don't seem to prefer Normal type or Powder, but my dwarf hairgrass is filling in well with the Powder. I used ADA Power Sand-S, a layer of Normal type, then Powder on top. I left a bit of space at the front of the glass when adding the Power Sand and Normal, so I could fill it in with the Powder. If I could do it over, I would just do Powder type and skip the Normal type, as I've noticed some of the Normal type surfacing through the top Powder layer.

  4. Welcome!

    I use half dose of Excel on my 20 gallon long, planted with dwarf hairgrass, and frogbit floating at top. No ill effects to my shrimp. Initially ran CO2 24/7 at 1 bubble per 5 seconds, but shrimp seemed less active. I might try it again once my carpet is more established, but for now, Excel at half dose is working fine.

    Like Pika, I only do small amounts of ferts. 1 ml of Seachem potassium, and 1 pump of ADA Green Brighty Step 3 (leftover bottle from my planted community tank), every 2-3 days. I also placed some Flourish root tabs under the soil when I set up the tank.
