Hello Mihai,

welcome to the GF. You´re the first romanian user (okay, except Chris Lukhaup who has a romanian origin), an it´s a quite good chance for our community to get a closer look on shrimp-keeping in foreign countries.
So, be welcome and have fun.

I´ve made a little correction to your first post and replaced the romanian version with your second post in english.

With greetings from the Himalaya

Hi Mihai,

I wish you all the best for this Project.
And I hope you give us some updates from time to time.

Especially what will happen with the power socket behind the tank.

Hello Mihai,

Nice to read from you and to see such an amazing shrimp room! It looks really professional and stylish, too, with the white furniture as a contrast to the tank.
I will follow your thread to see how your project develops, as I'm also keeping several neocaridina varieties. And I'm always curious to see if things are done differently in other countries!

Greetings to Romania

Hi Mihai,

Looks like it's going to become a beautiful little tank.
Because I had special experiences with Dennerle plants: After watering them for about 8 weeks, they still killed my whole shrimp stock. They were only 3 Anubias 'Pinto', but they seemed to have clearly be infected with loads of insecticides. It took me about 12-16 weeks until I would risk another try to put shrimps into the tank again. And then they survived. thank god. So be careful with your plants and the planned shrimp folks.
