wah, then i feel like doing the lazy men method... :s13::s13:
get those boxes of java / xmas moss that are already tied with coconut husk then just put in my aquarium... :s13:

no need to buy seperate mesh ($8), seperate boxes of moss ($2-$3 per box), the big piece of xmas moss at $9... then have to get fishing line, then have to tie them,

those tie to husk the most $3.50...... :s13:

now my tank very bare. just one piece of drift wood with no plant and a few small moss ball.

The last time i tied my christmas moss on the driftwood, few weeks became yellow due to probably high temperature and lack of light.

the last time my shrimp hatched its eggs only 4 survived. many got sucked into the surface filter i have I believe.

sponge filter would be better if you wanna keep the shrimplets alive.

but actually noticed sometimes the baby shrimp also get stuck in my hang on filter's intake. maybe really need change to sponge loh.
