I’ve had my mc for 6 months now & have not trimmed it bc I was nervous lol. Willing to try it now with these tips, thanks 🙌🏼

[@LoganRandoAquascaping]

Nothing to be nervous about at all! Hope my tutorial helps

[@longebane]

How do you clean up trimmings if you have floats at top and shrimp already in the tank

[@LoganRandoAquascaping]

Very carefully with a net. And then a check the container that I scoop trimmings into for hitchhiking shrimp

[@SimplyAquascaping]

Great Video Logan! I too try to trim once a month, but sometimes that flow state kicks in during other maintenance and I find myself doing it anyway haha

[@LoganRandoAquascaping]

I know whatcha mean. Sometimes the trimming finds you!

Great video! What's your dose to get 120 TDS?

[@LoganRandoAquascaping]

I go by eye and just keep adding until my TDS pen reads 120

Would a low tech iwagumi style tank be a good first tank?

[@LoganRandoAquascaping]

Probably not if you go the low tech route. Iwagumis tend to rely on carpeting plants that really benefit from high lighting/CO2. For beginner low-tech, I would go for a densely planted jungle-style scape with low light plants like crypts, microsorums, and rheophytes

[@jimmyhfishes]

Do you keep your trimming to grow new patches of monte carlo?

[@LoganRandoAquascaping]

I don't but you certainly can

Pure red line shrimp fit so well in Iwugamis
