Cherry Shrimp Care
Posted: Thu Jun 27, 2013 10:33 pm
hi guys,
recently joined the hobby and i've got 2 10-gallon tanks running. one community and one just for RCS. i recently purchased my 10 wee little RCS juveniles last week and so far two of them have parted! i ran the tank for 1 week before and i introduced some of the good bacteria from my other and by means of leaving some of my guppies in the tank for a good 2 hours. i have a sponge filter and a semi planted tank. Amazon sword, java fern. anubias, el nino fern peacock fern. the first shrimp that died was the day after i introduced them. and the latest one that died was today, tucked away in a sword plant. any help on how to keep my RCS from dying and reaching breeding age? sorry for the long post, need some help fast!
