    Welcome to this weeks build video. I really wanted to make a simple aquascape that allows me to view and enjoy my shrimp, but still look stylish. I think I achieved this with the aquarium/aquascape I've created :)

    I really love this beautiful yet simple aquascape for a nano tank. Great idea to use only plants that grow on the decor and not in the substrate. Keeping the substrate to a bare minimum really helps give you the most water volume possible out of such a small tank. Amazing job, as usual!

    How calm and pleasant! Probably one of my favorite tanks, ever! I will say, i would not have been able to stop where you did! I've gone moss crazy, and would have added at least 4 mosses around the base- for the shrimplets of ccourse!!!
    The more I look at this gorgeous tank, the more I love it!!!!!

    MD I had been really wanting to do a tree & path aquascape, but finding a proper aquascape store I realised it’s probably way more cost to start with as I was only going to put in shrimp & a batta. But this looks so much easier & I love the aesthetic! I have health issues holding me back right now but I LOVE LOVE LOVE this! I’m going to do it as soon as I can. Thank you so much for your videos..
    Just a note... for me personally I love the journey, wasted my thing to show what your doing completely in the intro... hope you don’t mind me saying so.

I’ve been looking into keeping caradina shrimp (which is what you have in this tank) & been told that you need an active substrate to reduce your ph level. You don’t have any in your tank so wondering what your parameters are ph/GH/KH & what TDS are you keeping them in. Thanks.
