Petshrimp.com Discussion Forum

So, twice a week I pull the air pump and the diffuser stone from my other tank and place it in my opae ula tank, to circulate the water and accelerate the air exchange. The air flows only for an hour or so in the morning.

From older posts in this forum, one would believe that this type of water circulation would be bad for them. On the contrary, they seem to love the air bubbles. They all become super active (not the skittish, popcorn-type movement), swimming in and out of the bubble stream, riding the current, and then jumping back in.

I wish these pictures could better show this...

Looks like you did a great job of setting things up. I am planning on setting up a tank for a few of these shrimp and you just gave me some ideas.

Thanks.

It's the beauty of simplicity
