Can you see the other shrimp?


How about now? Yes it is one of my Sri Lanka shrimp These guys are GREAT! I will try to get a better shot next time


More to come soon

Woot! Nice shrimp Neon I like the CRS and Sri Lanka, congrats on the berried CRS and nice Ramshorn snail Hope to see more pictures from you soon.

Nice pics indeed, and some good-looking shrimp too.
When the r/o unit arrives and I have another tank set up, I'll be adding some soft-water species to my collection as well.
What is the substrate in the tank? It looks rather deep for a shrimp setup. I've found that it's a good idea to stir my (thinner layer) of substrate when I do partials to release the gas bubbles that form. Apparently the MTS aren't enough to keep it aerated. I almost wish I had used a UG filter to prevent that situation.

Thanks guys, glad you like them too

The substrate is caribsea tahitian moon black sand, it looks great and the grains are larger which helps with the gas bubble problems. The sand pictured in my tank is actually 1/2" deep at the deepest parts and 1/3" deep at most areas.

I still buy my R/O water from a local vending machine and continue to have good results Please let me know how your unit works for you. If you get the same results plus the convenience, that might be worth the investment

Ah, the substrate appears deeper in the pics.
I figure the r/o unit will be a handy addition. Aside from the soft water, the waste water will be perfect for my African cichlid tanks. Incidentally, there isn't anywhere locally that I know of to buy r/o water. That isn't a bad way to go for a single smaller tank if it's available, but convenience aside, having your own unit is more cost-effective in the long run.
Hmm, aquariums, r/o units, digital cameras, this hobby/addiction isn't cheap. I blame the other members of this forum as much as myself for providing the temptation/inspiration.

What, did you say something? I was just feeding my shrimp, changing the water, tanking and taking a picture all at once !

IT'S THE SHRIMPBUG
