Great tank! Your scrumps are in scrump heaven!

Nice tank!

Yes, the shrimp seem to enjoy hiding places, possibly for breeding, but also possibly for simply getting out of the overhead aquarium light when they so desire. Speaking of that, do you use an aquarium light? It's not apparent from your tank photo. A quality aquarium light can improve the overall he...

Here are some updated photos of the tank that was being discussed earlier. It shared nothing with my previous tank (which had the plant growing in it) other than a little water as a result of netting and transferring the animals...

******************************************** TANK UPDATE ******************************************** As mentioned in a reply on page 1 of this discussion, this plant surfaced in a subsequent tank after transferring nothing but the animals from one tank to the other. No other materials were shared ...

Are you able to provide an up-close photo of one (or more) of the shrimp with algae seeming to grow on it? May just be inadvertently getting stuck on them as they cruise around doing their thing.

Hello fellow Ecosphere Shrimp Releaser! Same way I got started with this hobby: http://www.petshrimp.com/discussions/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5199 The mold on your lid shouldn't be an issue especially since the shrimp won't be coming in direct contact with lid (correct?). Please post photo(s) of you...

Here's another one: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5360

I have (or potentially could have) lots of hair algae growing in my tank. I have one of those long aquarium tweezers, and I simply pull that stuff out of there from time to time (not very often at all) to keep it under control. No issues whatsoever doing nothing but that manual "landscaping&quo...

Congrats on your first berried shrimp! Any photos of your entire tank?

Nice tank and photos!

Don't forget this guy...! http://www.petshrimp.com/discussions/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5360 Jae Senji Batophora oerstedii or Batophora occidentalis.JPG About a year and a half ago, after moving all my animals to a new tank, I gave this tank to Mustafa (we both live in San Diego) so that he could at...

I started this tank a bit ago (June 2015), but never posted it on the forum until now. So, not a "new" tank necessarily, but simply new to the forum. Why did this particular tank's big reveal take so long to roll out? Merely a case of extreme procrastination. I began positing on Petshrimp ...
