Hello everyone!
Today I purchased two Manzanita wood pieces from Mitch. I had this deal in the works with him for a couple of months, so I had time to think about what I would like to do with them! With that in mind, a few weeks ago I ordered a couple of different mosses from Aqua Animania. Also last year, on an auction I purchased a 7 gal. glass globe, that I wanted because it was different.
Now I have everything to set up a cool looking shrimp tank!
I started by attempting to attach the Christmas moss to the wood first. So I grabbed some super glue gel and started glueing the moss.
However since Mitch had the wood out of water, they were dried out and would float in the globe tank. Therefore I needed to find a place for them to soak them! So one of the branches with Christmas moss went in my cardinal tetra tank.
And the other with African water fern and spiky moss went in the river tank.
I’m planning on keeping these in the current location for at least a month or so, while the moss and the fern attaches properly, and the shrimp grow up!!!! Oh I did not mentioned that I have blue diamond, and green babaulti shrimp just hatched, and those will go in the globe tank!
