Cugio- That is what I expected, a solenoid would be a must right? Thanks for the heads up on the shrimp not breeding with excel. I guess I can just order everything I need and just get KNO3 at my local hydro store since it cannot be shipped? Just to make sure I understood you correctly you mix all your own ferts accept for iron and excel? Is there any specific reason you do not use a dry iron mix? I checked out that site and it looks like it will help me out.
Kgrizzle- I think i used to have spiral grass, but it died off. Probably due to lack of nutrients. I picked it up at my local Petland.
I had a few more questions about shrimp,
Can multiple species be housed together? I was told yes at the pet store, but it seems my algae shrimp ate my cherry shrimp.
Will shrimp breed successfully with fish in the tank, right now I have some tetras. The plant population is pretty sparse, but I imagine that will change once I start CO2 and fertilizer.
