many lf fish shops get their shrimps/fish from fish farms in asia.

i don't think they'll last very long with the cardinals in there

my first shrimp only tank is a heavily planted 5 gallon with java ferns, java moss, rotala indica and crypty parva which was all originally a biotope for dwarf puffers i didn't get any and got hooked onto shrimp. When your tank is heavily planted you'll have lots of fun trying to just count them (lo...

the sw was a typo i keep them all at 25C. They've been fine that way for 3-4 months. The water parametres seem fine 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, 0 nitrate ph 7.2. And there are no other inhabitants in the tank other than bumble bee shrimps

one of my bumble bee shrimps died today without any signs to why. It looked healthy and all after i moved them to my new house. It didn't change colors and i kept similar feeding patterns and everything. The only difference was i kept them in a container instead of the tank its usually in. The conta...

Ok mine only success so far has been one pregnant shrimp when i didn't change my water for a 3 week period and the pH was at 6.8. I've been trying to keep my water at 6.8 but my CO2 doesn't seem to allow that. A new mix of CO2 will start off really slow and by day 3 hit a high and start slowing down...

the eggs are where the redish spot is. What it looked like to me was like a dark golden orange when i saw them yesterday.

:( I think the shrimp droped the eggs since I can't find the pragnant one anymore or the babies are hiding in the java moss but i doubt it. There are no traces of babies anywhere and i did a water change a couple days ago too so maybe the mother droped the eggs because of that. I took a couple pictu...

lol cave shrimp are endangered even if you manage to get some i'd quickly recommend you to seek someone that knows exactly what they are doing so that we can all see these lil guys flourish. A fish that you might be able to keep in your locker is a betta just make sure u get them some light maybe a ...

hmmm how long do the eggs stay with the mother because the soonest i can get a sponge or another tank would tommorow afternoon. also the eggs are golden color if that means anything

when i got home today i just notticed one of my bumble bees are big and plump with lotta eggs. My tank doesn't have a sponge filter so should I either turn off the filter for the time being or remove the mother? I'd get a sponge filter but there gonna close

hmmm if you want to lower ph the best way i find to do it is running CO2 it promotes growth of plants and algae and lowers pH. Just make sure your CO2 is consistant

hmmm does anyone know if my shrimp is alright one of them has a really dark brownish red head which was blackish brown yesterday before i messed up my diy co2 and ph changed from 6.8-7 to 6.4

i forgot to turn off my light and its been on for 22hrs straight and this is the usual about the usual time i turn it back on if i hadn't forgot to turn it off 10 or so hrs ago. Should I keep it on for the next 12 hrs like i usually would or turn it off completely? what should i do i don't want to c...
