Hi I just brought the same tank for a betta, I like the idea of some shrimp, how will you prevent yours from getting through the vents, you said you would cover them, with what is my question.

I recently bought one of these which is on backorder. Do you find the glass to be too thin and the glare more pronounced then on a straight sided tank?

hey John you need to put a power head in the Evo for more flow it will help a lot for algae and the coral

John, I bought one of these tanks for myself. They seem very cool...but Im wondering if you think shrimp can live in it because of the filter intake slots. I was hoping to get some shrimp but I dont know what to do about that part. Any Ideas??

Try putting Floss in the compartment with the vents to not only stop shrimp getting in there and also clear the water better

Excellent effort, for the tank, and the video... I'm a newbie to planted tanks and it was very easy and fun to watch... Lot of info in between the beginning and the final "product"... Not a "fiasco" at all... Congrats.

If it is indeed a 1 gallon tank, you are insanely overstocked. The fish are suffering from ammonia poisoning.

I think some neon tetras and some cobra guppies would go good with the fluval tank.. it'll bring out the bold colors and already some awesome fish.. if u want lol but other than that nice design and setup I wish I had the fluval flex..

Looking good. Finally got time to catch up on this video. As long as the plants don't freeze they are good. Much like plants outside, it's the freeze that kills plants. Once their cells freeze they are a goner.

That looks awesome. I often wondered how the plants survive temperature changes like that. Just because I live in a very temperamental part of Canada for weather.

Ice King definitely overstocked. plus angel fish are aggressive. I'd get them out of there.

If it makes you feel any better I got a good laugh out of watching this video.

I guess that wouldn't really make you feel any better, would it? lol It was fun and you got a thumbs up from me anyway. You made the effort and it turned out great.

Some Java Moss zip tied to the wood would look nice and your shrimp would REALLY appreciate it.

I voted to have you do it as a live stream and then I was unable to experience live. However, I enjoyed it anyway. I certainly stumble when I'm putting together a decor and its fun to see someone else work their way through. The result looks great. Thanks!

To keep shrimp in the tank you should cover the inlets to the filter with filter foam I think. Nice scape by the way.

Sorry for this too long comment. Missed most of the chat live so couldn't get a comment in the chat. But first, tank looks great. Would like to see what you decide to add over the skimmer and lower intake to prevent shrimp entering those chambers. I've had this issue with the Spec V and have added another sponge to the top area over the original sponge but occasionally shrimp still get in - maybe through the bottom area. When I pull the sponge for cleaning, I have to be careful as I will usually be pulling shrimp attached to the sponge and biomedia. So just a caution on those intakes.

If you ever have to pull the output spouts, say to clean the pump tubing, make sure the water is below the hole they come out of. Chili rasboras can and will swim through that hole. Just another lesson I learned. Fortunately I was able to successfully flush him back out.

And finally, otos are small, cute and will work on some algae. A horned bumblebee nerite (small and cute and won't breed) would be a good addition too.
