Saw my first Berried RCS from this shrimp shipment.
Did a water change.
And moved in driftwood with pelia on top as well as tank arrangement.

Pelia on left/ Subwrrasstang and Pelia on middle driftwood
Java ferns on chopsticks in the back
Java fern on the chopstick to the right

In the shotglasses:
pelia
subwrrasstang
flame moss

The rocks:
pelia/subwrrasstang

A lot of the pelia and subwrrasstang pretty much grew into each other so dunno which is which :S.

For some reason pelia/subwrrasstang is the #1 plant I am able to grow like wildfire. My 29 gallon has a whole breeder trap full.

Ya shotglasses are the way to go if you just wanna grow pelia without any driftwood. It stays in place and just grows an grows :O.
 
Very nice!

The only thing I see that might be a problem is the sponge filter you have over the intake. It looks a little coarse, and the shrimplets may be able to get sucked in.
 
The sponges were off a smaller size filter, I am unsure of the brand but they are 2 cubes. One cube was cut into and placed on than the other cube had a preset hole. I had one of those scrubbers sponges on a handle and that let in shrimplets. So I will see if this version is any better.
