It has been a while since I’ve posted anything aqua-related. The thing is: I have no time. 4 aquariums and all of them are either full of algae, disabled or otherwise with lights off. Things are about to change since I want to sell most of my material, reducing to a single aquarium, with low-requirements and some gadgets to automatize most of the things. Anyway, I leave you with a photo of a shrimp hapily eating some algae:

Thanks for all those 14 people who voted on it. I know that with only those votes, the #3 place doesn’t mean a lot, but.. hey, it’s an accomplishment
