IN REPLY TO WHAT MUSTAFA OF THE FORUM SAID: Well lately I've seen people talk about it yet I still can't see it even in a shrimp I'm pretty sure is a female. Also I've been working over time and coming home late at night since its spring vacation and I don't have school for one week and I need all t...

Well if you all read what I said...my other reason above that is that I don't like the water current that it creates because in a small 10 gallon tank it pushes stuff around...especially the small plants at the top where the shrimps use as shelter. Also, my baby fish are continually trying to swim a...

Shrimp Color and Other Questions

Hey, well to my slight dismay I have a few issues and I'm finding ways to understand it all more. I was wondering, everyone tells of ways to check to see if a cherry shrimp is male or female, but I'm curious about the "saddle" that everyone talks about...and other methods to tell if a cher...

Feeder guppies might really like feeding on baby shrimp. I'd find someone with an Oscar that will take them off your hands. . . Its weird but the guppies seem to ignore the shrimps and don't take them as a food source, they just sort of ignore them. Anyhow I'm checking up on the filter so thanks an...

Question About Purchasing A Filter

Hey, Haven't been on awhile, but I just very very recently ordered a 38 gallon tank for $75 (40 gallon is $100...lol) and its coming soon. However, since I started out with a small 10 gallon tank with 10 gallon whisper filter, I have no use for any except the heater I have already which is for a 40 ...

Quick Cherry Shrimp Question

Okay I know this is probably a simple question for many of you, but I guess this is why its called a shrimp forum so I'm just going to ask anyway. Do cherry shrimps lose their color after a moult (from what I gathered is yes but ?) and how long does it take them to color up again cause so far most o...

Well if u check this website out more thoroughly you'll see that they tell you that. Anyhow, females gradually become really red while males have very little red spots if any at all and retain that way even through adult form. What I want to know is...how come my female cherries go red sometimes and...

How To Check An Aquarium

Was wondering, how do you check if an aquarium wont leak. I mean, my friend for example, has a fish tank and suddenly one day...it just bursts...40 gallons of water, fish waste, and water creatures all over the rug, not to mention three of his kids wanting to see what would happen if they step on on...

To Carpet....Or Not To Carpet. That Is The Q

My house is mostly carpet except of course for the kitchen and bathroom. Its been months since I cleaned it. However, my shrimp tank is in my room. I was thinking about doing a total carpet washdown/shampooing. However, was wondering if this would harm the shrimps because I was thinking if the vapor...

"Advisable to put a tank near to a electrical product?" Well from my experience, I don't have much of a problem with rusting, its just the occasional splash of water, so its best in both favors to protect the electrical product from any water contact or put it somewhere that is safe from i...
