Well I finally finished the 10 gallon shrimp tank. There are bubbles all over the place so this picture isn't very good; I'll post more later. IMG_1211.JPG

looks neat, what's the stem plant in the back? What kind of shrimp are you going with? (i see the feeding dish prevails :p)
 
The cave on the left is an aquarium decoration that was a mustard yellow. We painted it gray/black with Krylon Fusion. Then I attached java ferns to it. Behind that cave I have Vals, and in the back is a combination of hornwort and pennywort being held in place with a feeder ring. The other plants are regular java fern and the lacy variety from msjinkzd.
 
I love my feeding dishes! LOL! That other little cave (I'll get a better picture later) is a clay cave for reptiles. I found that when I was buying the feeding dish. I'll be putting the yellow neocardina in this tank. Msjinkzd will be sending them in a couple of weeks. Right now I have a sponge in the HOB filter of my 30 gallon that I will float in this tank when the shrimp arrive to help with the beneficial bacteria.
 
argh the yellows will look awesome on the black substrate. I'm so jealous!
 
We also made an opening in the back of the cave so the shrimp will have two entrances. These are the Vals in back of the cave. IMG_1212.JPG
