My kitchen nano

[tim]

Morning folks, thought I'd share a quick pic of my kitchen nano, I needed a small tank to hold my shrimp when I rescape my 60p, so Mrs Tim gave permission for the mini m to go in the kitchen.
Using a 10w led floodlight and internal filter,

Cheers for looking

Thanks bloskas, it's making its way between the rocks slowly, I'm hoping the emersed MC will eventually work its way down to the rocks too.

Great little scape

Looks great!

Thanks Tim and Andy, most appreciated

Does she know it's staying

Does she know it's staying

Mrs Tim is a compassionate lady, she would never make a shrimp homeless plus if I aim to rescape it over Christmas she will be too busy to notice that should make it a permanent fixture

[Alex J]

Looks great and so tiny! Well done.

Is this without injected co2? If so, I am very impressed, and definitely gives me inspiration for the plant list you mentioned!

If I'm honest Tim, photos of yours put me to shame! Don't underestimate your ability ☺ Lovely update as always!
