Hello! Been doing my due diligent research and I’ve so far got a 10 gallon tank with lid, SICCE Scuba contactless heater, Imagitarium IN-FIL 20 internal filter, and airline tubing. I know I still need sponge filter and an air pump - recommendations for these? Along with shrimp and plant friendly substrate and live plants + hides. Anything else I am missing as I’m sure there is something? LEDs as well would love to know which specific to get. Would love the hear the best things to get for these guys. TIA!

I can’t for the life of me use a damn paint brush and keep it neat so I’ve strayed away from PBN until a few months ago I discovered I could use fine tip acrylic markers and just best match the colors (I have over 200 so it’s not too hard but def not perfect). Anyone else? Tips with these?

Made a rookie mistake and ordered three overpriced plants from them. What are some better priced, reliable online stores I could use instead? Google search brings up hundreds so I’d like to use one someone’s had good experience with. TIA!

I’ve seen a few posts now mentioning this and I’m curious as to how this is done? Do you have to do two colors at once so it doesn’t dry or? Tips greatly appreciated!

I’m traveling on that ship June 2027 to the Mediterranean and I keep seeing videos about only the negatives and I’m getting so worried I made a mistake 😭
