I just dont *think* he is getting bit at because they are all such non aggressive fish. I watch him quite a bit. He never leaves his rock lol. He's always hanging around it, its right under the current. Anyways, I am getting a whole new 20 gallon tank for him. I'll get him a few more shrimp and zebr...

So I'll ahve to get a seperate tank for my shrimp?? He's been in hiding ever since I got him. We;ve only seen him out two times. None of my fish are the least bit aggressive, they are in my living room and I watch them all the time and they are all really peaceful. I've never had such a bunch of wim...

I just have to add, I have started looking for another 20 gallon tank so that I can move my shrimp in there and hopefully buy some more shrimp and a few community fish.

Then I will go ahead and purchase the clown loach.

Yeah I've had this snail problem for... well I got the snails in June. So yeah... it's to the point I am going to try whatever I can to get rid of them. I boiled down my whole aquarium after months of having to pick out the snails and flush them. Originally, I was bringing them back to their lake. I...

I have no advice, except that from what I read and see, my filter shrimp has plenty to eat with just the particles in the water.

I put a cave rock right under the current and he loves it.

Just thought I'd give my half a cent

Long story short, I have a snail problem that is just not going away (damn prolific snails) and I was recommended to get a clown loach. I have a male asian filter shrimp. He has plenty of places to hide. He comes out once every few days to feed (or maybe he is coming out at night). Anyways... all my...

thanks guys! I actually have two big 'castles' with lots of holes in them, great hiding place. Like a giant rock with holes, but prettier! lol. None of my fish use it so my rock/bamboo/wood/asian filter/shrimp is pretty comfy in there. One of the 'castles' is right in the path of the filter current....

badflash, that looks EXACTLY like my shrimp! Except his stripe down the middle is red. Yesterday, he was out of his hiding spot, chilling on a big rock I have right under the filter, catching the particles going by. He is really fun to watch lol. He hides a lot though. Is this normal, or is he just ...

Is he in the right tank setup? Should I call PetSmart and oh so kindly tell them what type of shrimp they are really selling is?? Thanks for your help, everyone. I've discovered from this that i really do like shrimp, and possibly crayfish. I'll be looking into buying some more down the road. From e...

Beautiful specimens!

I just have to ask... how do you get such great pics!? I've been trying to get decent pics of my fish for a looong time and they always turn out so terrible. I have a decent camera, just don't have the technique I guess.

Thanks for the responses everyone! I've come armed with a bit more information. "rock shrimp' has not jumped ship, he was hiding in a tiny crevice in one of my fish "houses":oops: and I discovered him today. He had his little feeler sticking out, sensing out the water I guess lol. He ...

can anyone help? At all????????

This 'rock shrimp' has completely disappeared. I have no idea how far it can jump, but we have searched the perimeter and it is nowhere. It is not in the tank, in none of the hideouts....

I am very concerned.

that is the absolute closest that my shrimp looks.

And it's not terribly close.

hey guys, thanks for the response. I have no idea, I actually did look through the shimp pics and found nothing even remotely resembling my very bland, brownish 2-3 cm shrimp. I feel like such a fool for having bought it. The ladyt mentioned casually it was 'a jumper' and well... now I can not find ...

Hello everyone. Well, I've owned ghost shrimp before. Loved them. SO I went to the pet store today to buy a few fish. Saw a really neat looking shrimp called a Rock Shrimp. It was 8.99. Asked the lady about it, said she didnt know, they just came in. I've been looking online and can't find anything ...
