Gravel problem
Hi all, My black gravel is turning white. I got it around 2 years ago from Petco and started out all black. A few times when topping off water or picking out algae, I’ve picked out a piece of gravel that was showing white and figured I just didn’t notice it before. But now I’m noticing a lot of them...

Re: 5th Opae Ula Aquarium—finally cycled!
Really nice setups! I especially like how you used a photo of the natural habitat for the tank background. I think I’m going to have to switch out the background for my tank now!

Re: My Supershrimp Journal
I take it back. I may have had babies this year and not realized it. There’s a clear size diff between the original adults and the 1-yr olds. And I just saw a couple that were half the size of the 1-yr olds.

Re: My Supershrimp Journal
Sorry I’ve been away for a while. The work tank larvae survived and now there’s about 10 more shrimp in the tank. Haven't seen any more berried females or larvae since though. Actually, I haven’t seen any shrimp reproduction in either tank this year. I’ve had so much hair algae in the home tank and ...

Re: Mossball and macroalgae help
It’s been at least a year of no feeding and I’m still pulling out hair algae every couple months. No signs of slowing down. I think my moss ball is gone.

Re: Mossball and macroalgae help
Thanks for the confirmation. Once the floaters start crawling I’ll get in there and clear it out. I wonder if I fed them twice in December and gave them 2 holiday dinners? Good thing I went cold turkey in Feb after noticing the algae growth. They might have to fast until Thanksgiving.

Re: My Supershrimp Journal
The rocks in the tank are coral rubble collected off the beach many years ago.

Re: Signs of spring
This is the first year I’ve noticed a spring rush. I’ve had continuous babies for the last three months. I need to go in and clean out some algae but there’s just too many floaters about.

Re: My Supershrimp Journal
Thank you! I started off with maybe 20 shrimps, added a light, ordered a dozen shrimp from Petshrimp a year ago, and the population has done really well. There is definitely a spring rush going on right now. Just hope the work tank is doing this well at the end of year. 3BC73D74-4F32-4EAE-894B-F9942...

Re: My Supershrimp Journal
New shrimp roommates! 10 snails arrived today and I put five of them in my home tank. It’s gotten the shrimp all riled up. A few even grazed on one of the snail shells. 78284587-E9F8-4C27-A7B1-189B88B283F0.jpeg FFC6A508-D1CD-4097-B887-75BCCA7CCE3A.jpeg The other five are coming with me to work tomor...

Re: Supershrimp mossball reproduction
I’ve had mine for about 10 months. It’s holding steady, just less green, but no signs of reproduction.
