Meaning, I found a maker of acrylic tanks which was very reliable which made a shape of 10-gallon tank which handily fits in my cleared desk space!
I have started to ponder the live plants to get it set up with once it arrives (eventually) and is leak-tested. I know the lighting system that comes with the tank is rated to support live plants, but I'm being cautious and wanting to keep mostly low-light plants about. Sure things so far in my plans are clumps of java moss attached to hides and a driftwood piece, as well as an Anubia minima positioned towards the mid-right of the set-up, by otherwise I'm still juggling several potential plant species, including Dwarf Sagittaria, Java fern, and mini red Ludbergia. Any suggestions on other plants, or where they're best to go in the set-up?
Crossing those caridina and tiger shrimps together. What do you think the offspring will be? #shrimpbreeder #shrimpfeeding #shrimpbreeding #aquariums #shrimptank #aquariumhobby #nanotank #shrimpaquarium #nanoaquarium #freshwateraquarium https://www.instagram.com/p/CoXwzmvJthm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Best place you know for getting healthy live plants, live invertebrates, and live fish (can be different for each, if you got different experiences.
The closest in-person aquaria place is literally almost an hour drive away (that isn't a fuckin' Petco/Petsmart Hell), so I'm interested in what breeders of fish and plants work best over shipping. I got a load of my tank set-up supplies delivered yesterday (though the tank itself and its heater, thermometer, cleaner siphon and one bit of hardscape are still coming this week), so really plant experience online is more what I'd need to know at the moment.
I wish the old independent pet store with the nice aquarium room and all the supplies and advice from the keeper in the town ten minutes away was still open, but I think it closed in the early 2010s long after my parents got their kissers and such. *heavy sigh*
