from what I read about the pearl shrimp on the shrimp varieties a while back I think it likes alkaline water and no acidic? I think the sand substrate is because they burrow, if this is the right shrimp I am thinking of. I concidered there once because, well, i thought it was pretty neat they can di...

thanks guy! I am just glad i know what a sick of dieng shrimp looks like now, even though it is one of mine. so sad. anyways, does the exoskeleton change in any ways also before the death and during the sick? I noticed before when palaemonetese go to shrimp heaven their exoskeleton form white spots ...

my first thought was that it caught some weird illness. well at least I know it is death and nothing weird. I have seen some crazy looking death shrimp of the palaeomonetese variety, from crazy worms living in them to parts of their shells turning pink (not mine at the store). Never seen a dead/dyin...

something is up with a RCS
Ok so lately in my little cherry colony there is a little guy who sticks out. More than likey a male or a very young female. The said shrimp has its candy cane striping of the males on the shell, but the flesh inside the body seems to be white rather than clearish. Anyone encountered this, know what...

I talk a lot. sorry.
to be honest i have kept aragonite with some of my shrimp a while back to see what was up. The palaemonetes i have do not seem to like the environment it causes. They bred at first but after a few spawns they started to drop and not even have eggs, this could also be they are petstore and probably o...

First off I am not the shrimp expert like most people here, so what I say probably can become contested Well, with the aragonite it will keep the ph at arround alkaline levels (8-8.5). the aragonite acts as a buffer, and also contains small traces of other elements. I don't hear of aragonite being u...
