I meant website wise, but yes, between yours and gunmetal post I have plenty of information to work off of, thanks.

Thanks for letting me know!

I also came across an old tread here, eventually, from 2005 by GunmetalBlue that is sort of helpful, lots of detail.

Hello! I was wondering if anyone here breeds bumble shrimp. I have aquired some bumble shrimp to add to my shrimp arsenol. I was wondering on any helpful tips in reguards to breeding them, as in what is the water chemistry or temperature trigger for a sucessful spawn. I am really excited about my bu...

If you didnt already know, the tip of lake Michigan, in teh past was a vast serries of wetlands and Lakes. Some of the remaining Lakes are Lake Calumet and Wolf Lake. Yes, they are even on wikipedia, but here is the point, the tip of Lake Michigan is/was heavily industrialized, concerning of ports a...

They just reported it in Lake Michigan. Hooray for more invasive species to ruin our Great Lakes. Lets just hope it doesn't become another zebra mussels. :/ They did alot more than make our water sparkiling and exterminate native shellfishes. No one can predict what invasives can do. Backin the day,...

Hi. Where did you get this shrimp and howlong did you have it? Was this worm in it when youinitially bought this? I know what you are talking of, for everytime I see these shrimp at those Big Box "Pet" places, I always see many with this parasite inside them. at the LFS who sells these as ...

I have been thinking about adding natural sponge since the begining. I am glad you wrote about your experience and now I am no longer afraid to experament with that. Recently the copepods in my shrimp tank have disapeared, which kinda worries me and makes me sad ( i think they are cute) and the wate...

Hello! Even though I do not have much to say on this board because I am very inexperienced, I welcome you. I find this place very useful also, and I appreciate those "rules" because it keep all that rif-raf outta here that make most forums counterproductive. I really got into shrimp about ...

o.O hee hee My Atya Gabonensis did that the other day, his poo was like an inch long, wich is funny because it is normally tiny little pellets. It happaned while he stole part of a Hikari Algae Wafer from the Cherries and ate it. If you think that is amusing, you ever see an axolotl poo? They normal...

I'd buy Mustafas book, because I know the information will be pretty much accurate. I have seen all sorts of crazy "lies" about shrimp lives and names on the internet. I am voting for many, many pictures. I hope it has lots of great pictures!

Thanks for the link to information. I am very curious about this, especially since I would like them to reproduces more than my pondsnail ramshorns, I really enjoy these little guys, infact they were the first misterious snail I have ever found in one of my aquariums.

I have a layer of flourite with a layer of tahitian moon in my palaemonetes and neocaridina overflow tank. It is also home to the axolotl and many plants. I am not particularlly fond gravel. First of all Mr. Axolotl can eat it and get sick. Secondly, My plants see to root better/less chances of mr. ...

aw it sounds like fun to me! Good luck with that! I am sure the snowballs will like it. o.O What size is the snowball home? I would love to do a moss and fern tank for the 55 gallon I just got for birthday/christmass, but its hard to get ahold of something that is just not stright up javamoss/fern h...

Remeber when I posted the magical "colour changing shrimp" (sold as Neocaridina blue) that you guys possibly IDed as hybrid? Well, now I have them on a new set up with a white substrate and now they are back to being clearish with little tiny dots, instead of being brown. The female eggs a...

I have them in several colours- reddish flesh with transparent brown, reddishflesh with a metalic-pinkbrown shell and then a few metalic white, soemtimes with metalic gray or white stripes with white flesh. I am pretty sure there is not CA problem going on, it can either be a differnt snail, or some...
