Its been a while since i last updated this thread so here are some new updates...

Added some sulawesi shrimp to the tank since my cherries didn't make it due to the heat... so trying a few of these to try instead...

And some plant updates...

Thanks

I'm loving it! how are the root system?

The root system is slowly taking over one little corner just underneath the water fall... which personally i don't mind as it gives my shrimp some places to hide...

Although with that being said, if the roots start taking over the whole back area then i'd have to do some serious trimming..

Very beautiful ! I think I like those new shrimps even mare than the cherries. Your plants look so healthy, gorgeous colors too! Thinking of trying just a terrarium myself. I don't think I have the time or patience to do the kind you've done. Great job FH!

^ Thanks for the kind words...

And yes, i actually have to agree i prefer these shrimp over the cherries too... although they do seem to like to hide a lot more than my cherries did...

The upkeep itself isn't too bad... pretty straight forward actually, just water changes and a little trimming every once in a while... although hard to say what it will be like after another year or two when the roots start taking over

But i think you should try something like this out yourself, even if it is a terrium... its actually quite a lot fun watching it grow in and changing as time goes on...
