I think the plants used here are Taiwan moss, Anubia nana 'petite' and Eleocharis acicularis.

It seems like you have many tanks in your office.
Are you the boss of the company?
You are very lucky your boss didn't mind that, if not he will be saying: "You are here to work not keep shrimps"! joke :D

You are a lucky man!

Actually the plants used are Singapore moss, Anubius Nana which has grown into very small size and hairgrass (which is Eleocharis acicularis) :) :)

I am sure that is still a nice little tank. Either you are the boss in the office or your boss is also enjoying for what you have displayed.

http://hwzdamnit.homestead.com/files/tank1.jpg Hi everybody, Hi damnit,

wonderful layout - damnit - fantastic photos. Just two newbiequestions: What kind of fish at the right in the picture - Ancistrus? How does it work with alot of moss and hairy gras at the bottom if a shrimp dies - will you be able to recover the dead body in time?

Regards. ralp

[Pconnieae]

What kind of fish at the right in the picture - Ancistrus?

The fish is an Otocinclus. I don't know what species, maybe affinis or arnoldi?

[damnit]

Those are oto affinis :) Dead bodies? Most of the time, they are gone even before I see them :D :D

[NoDeltaH2O]

That is the nicest moss I think I've ever seen. And the color contrast btw the reds of the shrimp adn the green of the plants is superb. Is that a shrimp pellet you are feeding your shrimp? You monster :joking: Ain't nothin' wrong with a little cannibalism the way I see it.

Nice tank, thanks for sharing !

[JLui83]

How did you get the moss to grow like that? It looks like its nicely layered and trimmed. I'm trying to do that with my Taiwan moss..

[lawngnome]

Yeah, is it attatched to something or did you just dump it in there?

[snow white]

Wow. I certainly like the low maintaince and high satisfying view. :D

Well done bro!

:)

[caseyhoo]

Those taiwan moss and shrimp are nice!!!

[gommyCRS]

Wow. Nice tank. Thanks for sharing. :)

[gibbus]

nice tank and nice shrimp :shocked: :)

[BaLuKu]

is the Taiwan Moss tied to driftwood or something?

[Shrimper06]

:shocked: So much green, it really makes the shrimp look even better!
