Petshrimp.com Discussion Forum

Hey I was just wondering if the Triops are related to the extinct Trilobite at all. Since they bear a striking resemblance.

Oh, alright Mustafa. Sorry about that I was just trying to keep your forum free from nonshrimp topics; I apologize. In that case, how many of you fellow shrimp fans live in Southern California? Those who do live in Southern CA. where do you get your supplies?

Other then UGF what would/should I use? Can't i just put a sponge over the intake? Will they do their job?

Which filter is better suited for Shrimp keeping? Aqauclear or Penguin biowheels, for a 10 gallon tank?

This is a SHRIMP forum; not a person locator... Which means the focus is on keeping and breeding shrimp. If you wanted to know who was from where, you should send them a PM or look at their information, thank you for wasting people's time who are truly dedicated to their shrimp.

Why isn't there a crayfish varieties page? What do Crayfish need to live? Is there anything different then shrimp or do they require more special care? What are the easiest cray fish to maintain? Can someone answer me?

Thanks for the reply Mustafa, any certain brands of the Power Canister filters to consider? Would Aquaclear or Penguin Biowheel fall under this category? What about heating, and substrate? How many gph should the filter do?

dont you have to be very careful about the maintenace though? I know as with anything there is maintenance but with this filtration system ive heard its more susceptible to junk.

What is the name of the undergravel system you have? Will it just work for shrimp or will it also work for fish and plants as well?

hey what do you guys think of the Penguin Bio wheel filters for a 10 gallon?

You're right about that badflash; about walking away; I think ill just work until i save up enough for an Eclipse 6 gallon or I find a very good 10 gallon setup.

Ive tried looking for both Aquatech and Aquaculture on the net, and I am unable to find them, I have found the Eclipse; but I'd like to know how they compare to each other. As in Do the walmart brands have a much lower quality then the Eclipse; is it chepaer to buy WalMart and upgrade later on?

Which Eclipse system works the best? How does it compare to Aquatech and Aquaculture?

I apologize for that last comment made Mustafa; I would call that a momentary lapse in judgement.

What is an air pump? and ive heard that undergravel filters arent as good as the Biowheel filtration system. Also do you happen to know any way i could get extra money without getting a part time job?
