Awwww that pic is so romantic! LOL

I don't really know much about genetics but I do wish you the best of luck .

Hey!!!!!!! My GF and I are planning on starting a shrimp tank together I resent that statement Mustafa

As was suggested I would do Red Cherries and them alone. No other fish/shrimp.

Sure a hungry apple snail will eat any plant even brigs. Why are you letting your snails get hungry? Feed them veggies. If they're eating your plants that's your problem. Brigs are planted tank safe.

pimafix doesn't treat ich. Watch your tank closely. Just because you don't see it anymore doesn't mean it might not pop back up. Ich can be very tricky to get rid of. I always use salt first, half dose if you have sensitive stuff in the tank. I haven't had to treat with salt and shrimp since shrimp ...

I love the pic with the shrimp molt. Awesome!!!!! Has this site ever thought about a picture of the month contest? I think it would be fun. Shrimp are some of the most interesting creatures to capture on film IMO.

congrats on the camera!

Hey cool thanks for the info

I wanna go to Japan >_< lol

I don't believe it's seasonal. Someone else can clear this up for sure for you. Are you sure your water is soft to their liking?

They will even try to eat what they can't possibly swallow. frog-predator shrimp-prey No they don't. African claweds will do this but true dwarfs will not. They are very peaceful, especially when they get used to eating prepared food. I feed mine frozen blood worms and have raised guppy fry with th...

I would not suggest leaving animals in a tank while moving them. It tends to get a bit rough on them plus the substrate kicks up debries. I've heard of someone doing this and all their poor guppies died. Remove all the plants into a bucket with about half tank water in it. You can also transport the...

Try to get clove oil. It's a good thing to have aroud in situations like this. You can find small expensive ammounts at pharmacies or go to a health food store to get it in larger quantaties. Small doses will just knock out the animal but larger ones will kill it very quickly. I have some around inc...

Heya guys.

I was wondering, are there any shrimp that live in brackish water or can be acclimated to BW and thrive(not just survive)? I tried searching brackish but didn't come up with anything. There's a few threads that come up but nothing specifically on the matter.

Thank you

Hey Zap! Incase you ever want more tigers Big Als near point claire has a tank full of healthy ones. Cool to see another montreal area person here

or you know, you could just read mine, from someone who has experience with these animals .

ADF's prefer easy to catch food like blood worms and other squigglies. Their mouths also aren't made for eating inverts.

Wow talk about off topic guys lol! ADF might catch a shrimp every now and then but with the way they eat I doubt they could keep it down. It takes them long enough to finish off a blood worm, I can't imagine them finishing off a shrimp. Mine lives with a fairly large amano with no problems what-so-e...
