I fear there is no cure for this madness.... Bill, it certainly looks like you have contracted the fatal Shrimp Insanity ;-) Jackie, thanks so much for your input! You may have the Shrimp Bug even worse than me :shock: Don't forget about your own health even when you're saving up for more shrimp an...

I'm glad that you decided to keep your greens. I love my snowballs. They're absolutely stunning. I have mine house with my green shrimp, but I now have to move half of my greens into another tank(they'll share with a few ghost shrimp) due to the about of breeding that's going on. Wow, that's exciti...

yes, unfortunately I agree with zapisto and Werner that that is a HUGE problem in the shrimp hobby. I have noticed from looking through as many N. palmata pictures as I can find that those guys do indeed express a lot of variability in color and even body shape. So I think Werner's absolutely right ...

thanks for sharing, guntank :) OK, update on my Shrimp Insanity. I will be increasing my breeding projects within the next few months to include snowball shrimp, opae ula, and Amano larvae. This would bring my collection of shrimp colonies to 6 (including the RCS, yellow, and green shrimp I have now...

Worried or not, the frogs will win and your shrimp will be a tasty memory. at the very least, even if the shrimp somehow survive, they will live a miserable existence in constant fear and you wouldn't get to appreciate their natural behavior or beauty :( I find shrimp most enjoyable when they're no...

thanks! Those will be my next on my Shrimp Wish List. They have a more uniform appearance than the N. palmata, it seems, so I would know what to expectzapisto wrote:no it is snowball.Baby_Girl wrote:Is the shrimp at the top left of the wirbellose.de banner also a N. palmata?

sorry, one more quick question
Is the shrimp at the top left of the wirbellose.de banner also a N. palmata?

Darn, I wish I could read German and other European languages.

hmm, so the orange insides are actually a parasite? That sucks. I was hoping it was just a really unique shrimp. Yes, it certainly is still attractive without the orange stuff. But if those shrimp are all harboring a kind of parasite, I'll stick to snowball shrimp :wink: Werner, thank you for the gr...

do you have Shrimp Madness?
I knew I had a problem when I went through periods of near-obsession over shrimp. I thought about them almost every waking moment, I saw them in my head whenever I closed my eyes, when I slept I had dreams about shrimp breeding projects. But it really crystallized for me when I lost batch after batc...

I've seen that 'dish' before in some documentary. It turned my stomach. I couldn't stand that 1) the little shrimpies were still alive and 2) the marinade and spices were obviously hurting them. In the video I saw, they showed the shrimp (that looked very much like a kind of grass shrimp) being dipp...
