Hi Jojocute,

Interesting "black mesh" you used for the moss on the floor of your tank. Is that plastic mesh or some other materials ? Any indicative price as well ?

[Walter]

cool setup.
the two moss looks like trees...for those crs to hide. :)
btw, it looks similar to one of the lfs selling it months back :D

[damnit]

nice tank!!! ... perhaps you wanna share more parameters on the tank? ... woah i see some snakehead monsters in the tank opposite the CRS tank!!! :eek: :eek: :D

Got those Taiwan moss tie on driftwood from Bro. Ben chua..
Shrimps need to hide unless feeding time..

Joe,
Can use those stainless steel mesh for the moss floor, no need for weight.

Using this plastics mesh to cover my 3ft tank only cost me $8.00...
If i use stainless steel mesh will cost me alot $$$...

very nice shrimp, bet they cost a lot... :eek:

so i suppose u are not going to (in fact, can't :p ) remove those weight (unless want to remove those mash), just wondering would it cause any harm to the shrimps?
observed mine with some brown (corrosion?) especially at the innerside, anyone tested the effect on shrimp tank? :confused:

consider ss mesh a long term investment...u wouldnt want the corroded zinc to affect your shrimps right? The are not acid proof....if you are maintain 7.0 and below ph...it will accelrate the corrosion rate.....Anyway there are lobang for cheap high quality ss mesh mention by the thread started by Zhiqiang in Arofantic....not sure where maybe you would want to do a search for it..... i remeber seening something like 3f x 1 ft for $5 or $10. I bought mine a bit exp for $10 for a 3ftx1ft (flexible good for ricca land scaping to make hills and slope. ). I guess only slightly more exp than plastic and dont need weight.

[jojoecute]

Thanks bro...
Zinc will corrosion ?
Then i better change my moss setting..

I think aluminium and stainless steel are more resistant..... but i heard aluminium rice cooker pots is posionous if used long term to human not sure abt shrimps. Yes zinc... bronze is more resistant too...i wonder where can get bronze.....

You can also get thick stainless steel sheets cut them and use them to replace the zinc if you want to keep the plastic mesh...Just a thought

[Walter]

yes.. zinc will react with acid... not suitable for long term i guess :)

[jojoecute]

I had taken all the moss floor, will change setup moss floor using ss mesh..

Thanks bro for advise...

[jojoecute]

What grade should i give for this CRS? :eek:

[dkk08]

How abt Grade A or at least a Grade B+

[Walter]

i would say its a B, beautiful colourings already just that whiteness not enough ;)

[janazr]

I would give a grade B. Not bad at all for the white pattern.

[Caridina]

I agree with Walter. The white is not intense and holistic enough. However, the red balances well with the white. I would give a B grade. Cheers!!

[maestro]

I would think it's a B grade. Red & White colors not intense enough, Clear splotches in the red and white areas. It's a nice shrimp anyway! 'Beauty is to the eye of the beholder'!

cute tank! I like those moss "trees"
