[Question] Feasibility of closed system Jarrarium for Neocaridina davidi shrimps?

Posted: 03 Feb 2020 01:29 AM PST

Hi! : )

I am planning to build a closed system terrarium containing a stable population of Neocaridina davidi shrimps. I was hoping someone who has had experience in building closed systems jars could read over my protocol and suggest if there are any obvious flaws in my plan.

The Jarrarium will be built in a small aquarium with volume of 75 liter (50cmx50cmx30cm, approx 20 gallon), of which at least 50 liter will be water the rest being substrate and clutter.

Light is supplied by LED lighting, which is switched on automatically for 9 hours per day.

Temperature swing in test was measured between 27.1 -28.5C over a 3 days period.

pH was 6.8 at start and 6.7 at the end of testing period. Continuous testing wont yield usable or representative results due to the need to open the jar to sample :P

Water will be taken from a well established (3 year old) 400 liter (105 gallon) tank near soil level, which I hope will help accelerate the development of the microbiological ecosystem of the tank, main substrate will be small gravel on lower layer, and aquarium soil substrate on upper layer, introduced water plant will be entirely composed of A.nana variants.

Tank will be incubated for 3 months in sealed conditions, after which water conditions will be tested. If the conditions are within acceptable parameters, an starter population of 20 adult shrimps will be introduced and the tank resealed.

If anyone has any advice on how to improve this design, I would be very grateful.

If anyone thinks this project is a bad idea and should be abandoned, I am also open to suggestions, but please also give a rational reason why you believe this protocol is irreversibly flawed. I am frankly of the opinion that new ideas should not be abandoned because it is seldom successful or has not been successfully done before, if everyone operates by that mindset new ideas that require experimentation will never get tested.

Any suggestions on how to add soil without disturbing my tank?

Posted: 02 Feb 2020 08:26 AM PST

My friend made a jararrium for me and there is only gravel in it, no soil. I added my snails and there is a nice amount of algae and water is balanced. I would like to add soil for benefits and to add more plants. Any suggestions on how I can do this without ruining everything? Or would it be ok to displace and replace the tank. TIA!
