I can't believe I haven't written an update on my fantastic little pets since August. I am happy to announce that my 5 1/2 gallon tank of 10 supershrimp, 10 of Mustafa's finest snails and algae is now up to 30-40 little shrimpies of all sizes. I can't even come close to counting the snails and the a...

Thank you for posting the link to the informative piece on anchialine pools. Most interesting read.

You're right about Mustafa's method working the best. I haven't had a bit of trouble with my tanks and the shrimp are all happy and appear very healthy along with the snails and the algae. Congrats on your success and let us know when the berries appear.

How's he doing??

Have they arrived yet???? I'm almost as excited as you are!!!

If you have moss growing, Mustafa says it's ready for shrimp. I didn't test and mine are absolutely doing great! They are such fun to watch! It takes them 3 days to get to you, that's not a long wait and well worth it.

Those pictures are awesome. I really need something besides my phone to take pics with.

It's a learning experience, even for them

I believe Mustafa suggested no sun light, but some type of artificial light for several hours per day. The small habitats can over heat very easily in direct sunlight. He may be a bit too hot. Keep reading the forum posts and you will learn most of what you will need to know to keep him happy and he...
