I did not think these shrimp were cannibals...

Saw something a bit disconcerting today. One of my smallest (and reddest) little guys must have died or was hurt by some of the others and I saw two larger ones with portions of the poor shrimp - one with the head and the other with the tail - carrying the pieces with them and chomping away.

Re: Im so impatient

I have been lurking for a while, but decided to finally join in. My advice is... Don’t be too impatient! The wait to set up the tank initially is worth it and I followed Mustafa’s excellent instructions. I set up my initial tank in mid-January 2018, waited for about 8 weeks and ordered the snails as...
