Hi all,
commonly is claimed that decapod crustaceans inlay calcium to their armours. I read in some doubtful literature source that shrimps are exception. They don´t do it allegedly. Thin and translucent molts indicate it. What do you think about it. What say your literature sources? Thanks.

Hi,
I have 58 specimens of this species two months. I never saw any exuvia. Is it normal? How often your animal shed? Thanks.

Thanks for explanation and illustrative photo. I´m sorry, but it seems to me somewhat impractical-small capacity and laborious. For clening and water change I use garden hose with net. If I use mesh with small gaps I save shrimps but I don´t suck off debris. If I use mesh with big gaps I suck off de...

Hi all, maybe Opae ula needs salinity fluctuations for regular and successful reproduction (tide influence ?). Stable salinity (whether high or now) is not good. Or Opae ula needs salinity gradient in its environment, where animals find correct salinity to fit to specific ontogenetic stage or fyziol...
