Nice BBA, just be aware that if/when you get babies, that they may get trapped in the internal. I have used these

they make excellent shrimp tank filters.

Great pics :hyper:, I hope to be able to post some nice shots of my Bumble bees once the other six arrive tomorrow...
 
I have to admit, I used to get quite freaked out when I saw shrimps. The more I see them now, they actually look quite cute and i'm intrigued. The colour of yours look great against the dark gravel :)
