      What specific gravity do amano shrimplets need?

      @@Merb34st This is what I'm going by: 30-35 PPT saltwater (1.022-1.026 Specific Gravity).

      The hardest part was the scavenger hunt in Home Depot. The guy in building materials had no clue where it was, let alone what it was. But it works really well. I look forward to seeing your take on it. Thanks!

    I only know about this material from videos like yours. Keep on sharing, Thanks
    I'm not adding any information that's not already printed on label. But when I have finally utilized the whole board. I'll peel off that last piece protective film & then forget which side had the UV protection & does it really matter? I just use clear gorilla sealing tape for the sides.

      @@World404 yeah, the UV protective side probably only real matters setting up a greenhouse. Probably not much of an issue here. I like your idea of using the tape to seal the sides. Mine are still wide open. The stuff is pretty easy to work with, and I’m guessing cheaper than glass. Not sure though. Anyway, thanks for stopping by. ~Ron

    I use the same board but in 4mm thickness (most of my shrimp tanks are 10 gallons or under) I always cut so the veins are the longest part of the lid so that the longest run has the strength (not always as depends how best to get the most lids out of a sheet) but wouldn't need to if I were to use the thicker sheets. Good luck with the amano larvae
