think i'm gonna dig it out in the morning. i'm at work now. but yeah, i'll post a pic. i was digging around looking for similar pictures, just based on memory i'm thinking he had a faxonella in there maybe and missed it. i haven't done any kind of diagnostic on comparing body parts or anything thoug...

hi guys so i got in a bunch of schufeldtii crays early last month. 4M/3F. one of the females was maybe twice the size of the others, so i just figured that was all the sooner she would be ready to spawn. well, she's molted twice now and is maybe 2.5 inches long and is pretty stocky. the males are al...

the chinese tigers i thikn are just tiger shrimp, but the guy i got them from called them chinese tigers and anubias design gets them in as chinese tigers so i kept that in the name. its some sort of neocaridina. fully formed shrimplets on release. they must be pretty sensative because i'm havign tr...

the crays are in a 40 breeder mainly sand and rockwork. i'm not sure if they dropped the eggs or if she just didn't lay them. i was watching pretty close to see if she had eggs so i could give her a tank by herself. i have 2 pair and they are all around 3-3.5 inches total length. the shrimp are all ...

seems like i never get around to checking posts here as often as i would like. too much going on! quick update on my shrimp: currently i have cherries, crystal reds, amanos, chinese tigers, blueberries (caridina sp), rainbows (caridina sp, the freshwater full larval ones), and blue crays. i had 3 fu...

that looks right. the pics from the link to the mike's machine page are awesome! my camera wouldn't get anything close to that. the way the body looks close up would explain the movement. almost like it moves in surges, or hops instead of walking. had some folks over today and i couldn't locate it. ...

at 75°F you will have no complaints.

ooo! i think i got one!!! what's a late stage amano baby look like anyway? the one i just spotted is maybe 3/8" long looks to me mostly shrimpy in shape (like maybe the legs need to go through another larval stage maybe) and has a slight reddish cast, which i'm guessing is from grazing diatoms ...

well, this has been an adventure. the first (..er..second i guess is the one i mentioned here) big batch went belly up. couldn't get the tank cycled and feed at the same time. then i started using marine algea to feed and i killed that (more on the way). and today i got a real close look at my femal...

i borrowed a buddies digital blue a couple weeks ago. it was pretty cool to watch the larvae, but the pictures didn't look very good. also the difference in magnification between settings was too big to really be useful.

i'm in the same boat right now. water quality seems to take a dive and i get a die off. i switched over to the store-bought marine algea as the only food, but i'm afraid i'll have to start over with new water and another batch of larvae to get any babies. i wonder if i could get any of the marine ma...

when i first got my rainbow shrimp, i tossed them in a tank that previously had some danios in it and they hatched out after the shrimp were introduced. the shrimp actively hunted them down in a couple days. i only salvaged a couple of them.

open up google, paste in the web address you listed and search. click the "translate this page" link. not perfect, but it helps.

dude, you sound cooler every time you say something. keep this up and i'll be following you around clapping coconut halves together! this should work on mad toms too, right? i was going to try the old fashioned way and stick a tank in the garage for the winter, but this sounds better. too bad i just...

picked some up last month. so far berries but no shrimplings.
