Nice! I'm interested to see how that crypt does long term in the wood.

Well it is still alive lol I drilled a hole in the drift wood and just put the roots in. It is growing very very slowly... I got it for free I could have put it in the gravel with root tabs but I thought I would try something different. If it doesn't go well I will move it to the gravel...

Update...

I added another piece of driftwood and stood the other on end next to it. The new piece is has a lot of hollow spots in it that the shrimp like to hide in.

How do you guys think it looks.

Nice pics, you use the shotgun approach? Just shoot everything and see what works.

Nope the M4 method. I have my camera set to shoot continuously till I let go of the button. I get a lot of the same pictures but if what I am taking pictures of is moving it is pretty handy.
