They literally eat "all* algae in my tanks. Does that mean BBA and hair/thread as well??? If yes, sure would like to get my hand on some of those............ ;-) BTW, recently I noticed that my green shrimp have an appetite for BBA, its the only shrimp that I notice eating that, does anyone el...

Are those Malayan shrimps? As far as I know, only Malayan shrimp comes in a multitude of colours. I've seen brown, red, clear, black, orange and blue malayan.

If it is, then they will breed like the cherries, CRS, bees and tigers.

Thanks a lot, its very informative but i dont think i will be able to locate that med over here as i've never seen them in the LFS before. anyway, i've taken the ingredients down so that i'll be able to find one with similar makeup should the need arise.

Thanks again,

That's the advantage of shrimps! You need not clean as often as fish tanks!

From observation of my red-nose, I think the female tends to be bigger in size and comes with less red stripes while the male tends to be smaller but are more colourful in terms of red stripes on their bodies.

Its not that no one is interested, I think its just that no one knows what this "Chinese Shrimp" is without a picture. Mere description is very very difficult to ascertain or ID any shrimp.

I think any hint of agressor will result in your shrimps hiding and therefore makes them difficult to spot. I see no reason for having any shrimps if you kept on trying to look for them in between your plants

Yeah, the colour looks just like my amano before it KOed. Funny thing was that I thought I've got a new amano hybrid in my hand

My CRS doesnt want to touch that stuff but my amano just loves them!

I wonder if it's very difficult to keep Crystal Red coz it's very expensive in my country. Not only in your country but i think everywhere as well! :cry: About a month and a half ago, i bought 5 pcs for RM200.00 (USD53.00) and at that time it was damn tiny, something like 8mm or so, and i am glad t...
