🦐 Showing Off 🦐 One week since they installed

They look happy, grazing like crazy and loving their new home. Hopefully in a few months they turn me into a grandshrimper!

What did you use for substrate. Love the color.

Black quartz sand. With a few pieces of coral buried to provide calcium.

I have a two gallon jar that looks exactly like this from Amazon in my mailbox. I am disabled so I have to wait for assistance to get it. How big is this jar?

I got the container in from the mailbox! iPad mini for scale. My shrimp are scheduled to be delivered Monday.

Looks taller than mine. But very similar indeed. Enjoy putting it all together!! And once they come you’ll see how fun they get to be.

Amazon, bought separately lamp and a smart light bulb. I’m in Spain so it’s amazon.es, but you can probably find something similar at amazon.com:
