Since I'm actually getting somewhere, and Mustafa mentioned that the range will work for cherries, it's also important to note that there will eventually be 15-20 strains/species of shrimp in this rack. Based on my speculation, from Mustafas length measurement, a 200 micron mesh should work for mos...

yeah, i'm finding out that feeding is a bit tricky. these guys are much easier than the amanos are. the brackish seems to get dirty a lot faster than fresh. i still need to get some decent pictured of them. john and i figured out we got them from the same guy though, so he's been very helpful. a bud...

Re: A few Questions - help a shrimp noob out?
see in blue Hi there people, After reading your forum, and aquiring a tank (36"x12"x15") I feel I am nearly ready for shrimp, however I still have a few nigling questions. 1)What would be the best way to set up the shrimp tank - I have had a sponge filter for 3 weeks, working in anot...

sounds like it, but i was going to run one of my hoses to the faucet to draw the water instead of using a bulb. i have two pretty crappy syphons. not real impressed with either one. got them at the hardware store. one i think was designed to syphon a gas tank. i have lots of spare parts, so maybe i'...

well, the design they have on AKA needs to be primed somehow right? so it would seem the only way manually would be to lay under the rack, hold your thumb over the air break, and suck on the drain line. not too appealing. so i was going to put a cap on the drain line and do sort of an aspirator set-...

oh that's ingenious! so you took the pipe overflow from the AKA site and set it up to stop flow to waste by shutting down the drain lines, and stopping that flow lets you pick your depth. i've only seen that used to gravity feed to a drain. that sounds seriously cool! you should write an article on ...

two ideas then: 1. assuming its a back drilled tank based on your reply, make a loop in your outlet and point the drain up like this (sorry, can't do i nice drawing right now, not at home). they won't want to be on top of it: ---v---______----X --I-I_I--___-I___X___ --I-I_I-I----I____-___ --I____I--...
