Re: Black algae and tank transfer
Hi - I have read on the forum many times that you should not use live sand. The bacteria in the sand will die and pollute your water and you will have an ammonia spike. The way to remedy this is very frequent water changes until the ammonia is under control. Read the post that is on top - he used su...

I read on this forum that if they ignore the food, there is already enough food in the tank for the shrimps. The second time I fed, ...

Re: Tank Setup - Before & After
2nd UPDATE - I wrote above that I thought I snipped a shrimp in half when transferring him to the new rank. Today, I saw a shrimp swimming backwards with a strange movement. I looked closer and image my surprise when I saw the shrimp had its tail missing - I think (hope) this is the one I snipped: E...

Dch48 - thanks for the information. I also thought the biofilm was the filmy stuff on top of the water.

Thanks
Below is the whole tank:Thanks

UPDATE - I finally transferred my shrimp from the vase to the tank. The vase had been in service for 7 years with no water changes - just topping off the water as needed. Trying to capture the shrimp with a net while still full of water was impossible. So I used a measuring cup and started taking wa...
