I got them in a couple different mesh sizes; what density were you looking for?

You will need to bring the KH down quite a bit for the ph to drop; if you are using RO with inert sand / gravel it should do the trick, but if it (the sand / gravel) is buffer the KH up than it will have to work alot harder and might not be very effective? What's kind of GH/KH values are you getting after letting it run for a bit with RO water?

I would definely add some type of algae eaters; bristlenose pleco, otocinclus, horned nerite snails, amano shrimps, etc; and reduce the lighting period by an hour a day. Is the algae only on the anubias? What other types of plants do you have in there? Anubias tend to have algae issues when the lighting is too strong and / or they are in the open. You can also try positioning them in the shade as well but adding algae eaters will help greatly Hung

appears like you got two types: 1) green spot algae - I find adding algae eaters like otocinclus or horned nerite snails works best can should probably reduce the light period as well 2) diatom / brown algae - this is a result of excess silicates from the gravel or rocks and can be quite common during the initial phrase of a tank. it generally go away as the mature matures and from water changes but adding algae eatersas mentioned above will help as well What size tanks do you have what type of light are you using? how long are you leaving the lights on? how long as your tank been running?

I already replied to your pm Here is my standard diet for my shrimps monday: Benibachi SP food (colour food) or Benibachi Golden Food (for tiger shrimps) Tuesday: SKA Barley Pellets Wednesday: Benibachi Red Bee Ambitious Thursday: Benibachi Kale Tablets Friday: off Saturday: SKA Snowflake food + treats Sunday: Freah boiled baby spinach (+ weekly additives) As you can see i prefer the benibachi brand but that is just my personal preference. With neo's you can keep the same basic schedule; a colour type food (monday) and growth type food (wednesday). Let me know if you have any questions. A simpler method would be to stick with a staple type food 2-3 times a week and supplement it with something like snowflake, kale & spinach With shrimps, aorund 80% of the food they eat actually comes from their environment (biofilm, algae) so anything you feed is just to supplement that. That begin said you want to have a decent light that promote the growth of biofilm and algae - i like to leave the wall of my tanks covered in it and just clean the front so i can see inside. As for the substrate, what is the parameters of your tap water straight from the tap (PH, GH, KH). In most cases it should be fine for neo's so all you really need is any inert gravel if you plan on only keeping neocaridinas. Of course, not all of the products out there are 100% inert even if they say they are. I had good experience with Carbisea Supernatural moonlight sand & golden sunset, as well as the ADA La Plata sand. Any active buffering substrate like the up aqua sand or ADA aqua soil will eventually be exhausted of their buffering capacity; especially if you are using it with tap water. Typically they last around 1 - 1 1/2 year with tap water and 2-3 years with RODI water. $32 for kg of the up Aqua stuff is quite pricey; you can get 8kg of FLuval or 9L of ADA aquasoil for around $45-50. That being said, i had customers use them just fine with tapwater for neo's but it is really not necessary unless your tap water is very hard.
