Thanks to all!!

Post by crittersni »

Whoever has read my first posts knows that I had 9 opae, switched to a bigger tank (large vase/bowl), added more opae and that all but 4 died.

I started over and did everything differently following my gut and most, but not all, of the advice on this website. I waited several weeks and then put my 4 survivors in the new tank. After a couple of weeks, I ordered more shrimp from Moustafa. That was mid-March. I found one berried shrimp a short while ago. Unfortunately she dropped all but two eggs that same day. The good news is that she is still carrying them. The great news is that I saw another berried shrimp today!! I have several saddled opae as well. I can't believe it hasn't even been 2 months since I added the new shrimp.

I've learned so much from you all, and I'm so happy with this new adventure!!!! Thank you!

Mustafa’s shrimp tend to do get berried really fast, is what I see from a lot of people. Congrats on stabilizing your tank! The fun just began :wink:

Thank you. Bought the vase at Home Goods. Had to buy another to get a cover that almost fits. Was disappointed that it didn't completely fit, but it was a good thing when I added a bubbler.
