Feeding frenzy

This is my one gallon tank after adding a bit of spirulina powder.

WOW! I see now. I love :smt007 how they walk on water upside down. What are you feeding? Just spirulina?

Yeah just as much spirulina powder that sticks to the outside of a dry round toothpick. They get it like once every 2 or 3 weeks.

Same here but my shrimp lose all of their color when feeding on spirulina. After about a couple of hours they color back up. Anybody else experience this with their shrimp? And if so, what do you think causes it?

Dch you said this is a 1 gallon tank. There seems to be quite a few shrimp in that tank, do you have any idea how many shrimp there are? I also noticed there were at least two berried shrimp so it must not be at its limit yet. Very nice.

I have a tank with just over a gallon of water that I started with ten shrimp. Was just trying to get a feel for the potential population. I like seeing all the activity.
