Re: Newbie Needs Help (American Glass)

One of the larvae lived for a long time but I now can't find it now so is it on ground or not, I don't know. They were in a fully cycled tank, at least that's where I put the babies.

Update and More Help Needed

Claire's eggs were never seen once they hatched. We think they got stuck in the undergravel filter since the outtake was underwater (that's where we found Claire after she disappeared, she's fine now.) However, other mom Sarah has dropped some of her eggs. I saw one of her larvae today and covered t...

Re: Newbie Needs Help (American Glass)

Wow I am an idiot. I must have been really tired. I am a mod on a forum! I know this stuff. Thanks for the over feeding idea. The color is stress related I think. It is slowly returning to the ones who show it. Mom Clair, with the the soon to hatch eggs, has eggs getting clearer and clearer with the...

Re: Compatibility

If you were sure you could keep feeding at good levels, mollies can live in brackish, fresh, and salt water. PetCo has a whole section for brackish fish. I think feeding and predation would be a problem though.

Re: YELLOW Supershrimp!!!

Get a pic of the PINKS PLEASE!!!! That sounds really cool.

Set up a tank with yellow and pink. Then you get the "lemonade" feel to it. Totally base it around that.

Re: Newbie Needs Help (American Glass)

I think the coloration is stress related, they lose color during the water change. And my berried girls are cat fighting. Using their little claws against each other if they bump into one another. Is this normal?

Newbie Needs Help (American Glass)

Okay my setup: I have a maybe 1/2-1 gallon container with 4 adult American Glass Shrimp and 1 juvenile in it. This is temporary, I will likely turn a currently unused 10gal into a shrimp tank but other options are possible, all larger. I read about the food-not-left-in-overnight thing and did a quic...
