he's got a point there. buddy of mine ordered something that had the picture of a sulawese shrimp, was called a black diamond, and what she got in the mail was a low grade bee. i walked into a pretty decent shop last week where they had 8 varieties listed. three of them were cherries with different ...

i'm on the second try with mine. first drop of larvea didn't pan out. i have four loaded females now.

yeah, you can jam a lot of tanks in if you go vertical. i have a bunch in the garage i'm trying to figure out how to shoe-horn in, but i'm going to have to replace some of the existing ones in the end. i have a ~28x16 area and 8 tanks outside of that space.

yeah sorry, i just figured everyone knows BBS is brine shrimp. i guess there's an opportunity for there to be folks here that don't deal with that aspect of the hobby though. i have something between 100-115 tanks running at any given time, so since i only have enough dedicated to shrimp/crays to se...

ok, cool. i just adopted the high/low thing because its quicker and easier to remember. i don't have access to the lit, so i didn't know where the two originated. i'll switch to the more accepted terms then. the only reason i suspected the bristlenoses was because i've watched them many times come t...

i figured as much. she hasn't berried again yet. these guys are pretty fragile. i got them out of a feeder tank, probably had all sorts of health issues when i got them. bought 6 in march and only three have made it this far.

so i really didn't think anything of it at the time, but i have three small bristlenoses in a tank i was using to raise up some macrobrachium lanchesteri larvea and the larvea dissappeared. i haven't seen the bristlers go for high order babies, but i do see them eat brine shrimp when i feed it to my...

i was really tempted to get some of these but was afraid they would die in the mail and then i would have a hard time replacing them. one's i saw were pretty expensive too.

1 mm, there is nothing that big floating in the water. Do you feed them "green water" when they're that small? Or do they scrounge the "live rock/aquascape"? those are some good pictures for something that small. Has anyone experimented using hard boiled egg yolk to feed larva? ...

so are most of you guys shrimp and crays only or do you do fish too? i'm pretty much a generalist, keep a little bit of everything. aside from shrimp/crays, recent favorites are killies, rainbows, and wild bettas.

nice!

dude, you are seriously wasting vertical real estate. racks are where its at!

that's some pretty swank flooring though, what is that?

i desperately covet your camera.

so will the adults have the different color or will they all get to be that nice golden color eventually?

dude must be nuts. I agree, but I can't help but wonder if he was trying to make them look vicious like pirranas. Don't let this leak out to Hollywood, I don't want to see a movie called "Attack of the killer Mysis"! :smt005 in the opening scene, a greenpeace boat is stopping a whaler. su...
