    This is my 30cm (2.5 gal.) nano. I set it up originally for Tropica, to test out some new plants.

    I started with CO2 but got fed up of the fast growth so switched to Easycarbo (Excel alternative). Growth is about 1/4 of CO2.

    These are Oryzias sp. 'Neon Green' from my brilliant LFS. They're fully grown at approx. 15mm. I feed them crushed quality flake.

    Red nose shrimp. Pretty rare in the UK. Thanks to Aqua Essentials for supplying them.

    Beautiful little tank! Excellent photography too, by the way. I still have trouble getting good pics of my tank and its inhabitants. Thanks for sharing.

    Oh man, you used easy carb:(

    I was hoping you went whole hog and no Carbon or any sort.
    Nice tank!
