I have a hair algae problem and need to get it under control. I thought that I have seen a video of an Opae Ula colony with Amano shrimp present. I thought I should ask here for confirmation.

Hahahaha!

I really liked having a count on what is going on but I understand as I just stopped counting mine. There are too many to know. Oh well, I will still be looking for your posts.

That true. That's very true. Hahaha

I am very much looking forward to seeing the stand and shrimpies in it!

Do you know anything about the volume it holds?

Do you know how many gallons your bubble holds?

I want one, a big one!

I got two more horned nerites today to cut down on the algae on the glass! :) What is not so exciting is that they are too big. :/ I finally have a better photo of the green eggs and I thought...

They should be alright there for a week.

Your main tank is where you are having an issue and the bacteria should be established there in the hardscape and sand. You could reset the tank by doing a %100 water change. If you do that, to be in the safe side, you could not feed them for a week or two afterward since the tank is a little young....

There are so many shrimp carrying eggs that I no longer know how many there are. Things are going very well as I can see 4 shrimp with eggs on just part of a single rock. The population is going to explode! The water is nearly crystal clear. And everything looks better with somewhat clean glass. I t...

I would take everything out of your existing system and put it into the new container and then fill it with your freshly mixed brackish water at half salt water strength. Just mix half the salt per gallon that the directions tell you. Use Instant Ocean but maybe not Instant Ocean Reef Crystals. I ha...

How long has this container been set up?

Please, get that going so I can live vicariously through you.

It is such a great container. I imagined something like this for the shrimpies to play in. I didn't think I would actually see it. I want one! Hihi

I may be mistaken but there may be a 4th shrimp with eggs. This time, the eggs are red brown.
