UNS 20C (2ish gallons) ONF light and stand, planted tank with small starter colony of Orange Eye Blue Tigers with Rust gene (red color) that I’m crossing with blue bolt caridina and shadow mosuras :) I have a 30C (8ish gallon) planted tank with a colony of red pintos that I’m breeding for galaxy pattern that is just out of frame. And a 50G reef tank behind me! The little 2g was my first foray into planted tanks after years of having fresh and saltwater setups

You should post in an aquarium subreddit. Your setups sound awesome!

Maybe I will! None of my tanks are quite where I’d like them to be, especially the reef as I had a tank crash when I moved it, but it’s getting back on track. Gotta spread the love of hobbies :) I appreciate the comment!

Moves can be so difficult. So much stress. When I had tanks I was never satisfied with their look. I kept nano planted for the easier upkeep. I miss the hobby but it is expensive sometimes, haha. Good luck with your aquatic amigos!

Moves are the worst! I thought I had it down too, but my system was too clean and starved itself out. You should hop back into the space with a little nano! This tank is soooo simple, i have done 2 water changes in like 9+ months and it’s so clean because of the low bioload from shrimp that i have to dose nitrates for the plants. No co2, just the light, nitrates occasionally, and liquid fertilizer here and there. With how far the technology has come, a simple nano can be had for well under the price of a keeb! Thanks boss, hopefully I see you on one of my aquarium posts when i finally get around to it
