hi all,
don't think ive posted for a year or two now, and I don't recognise many names!
ive just obtained a 21x21x21 cube, around 140 litres.
I would like to keep some CRS properly in the tank, however it will be a new tank and I know they need a matured one.
I have a new TT Ex1200 coming for the tank which I can swap with one of my ones on my display tank so the media will be well cycled and mature. however, as there will be very little algae growth and biofilm in the tank, is it worth stocking with some cherry shrimp for a couple months first (I have loads in another tank) to get the tank going.. and then remove when I get CRS....
already have cattapa leaves from a foray a few years ago.
living in surrey, I do have hard water, will this pose a problem?
can I stock any tank mates with CRS? my cherries are in with some corys, khulis, cardinals and ottos
cheers
