Feeling a bit insulted there buddy...LOL! only joking good habit to quarantine. Wish you the best of luck with them!

LOL, nothing personal ;) Haha it's just a precaution, every shrimp keeper will have different types of bacteria living in the tanks. The problem is mixing the types. Both keepers shrimp can be perfectly healthy but when mixed the good bacteria of one tank may be harmful to another. At least that's how I understand it. After many losses even when buying from the best breeders in the country it pays to play safe.

I don't think I got anything other than crs from that first crsxtiger drop so still unsure as to what exactly those 2 males are.

But my female misch is looking nice and fat

And I've been spotting more of my redline with nice white faces and white legs starting to develop.

Foxpuppet's Benibachi Breeding tank

Female Mitch definitely didn't make it but I never saw a body, the positive out of it all is there we at least 7 shrimplets from her that made it.

In other news my 4th Gen CRS have just berried up for the first time ;)

Oh yeah and Bobs Zebs are still hanging in there for me..... Just

When a berried female dies you can remove the eggs from her & put them in a hatching tube or a net, as long as there is a good flow of water past the eggs & any eggs that get fungus are removed quickly, you should be able to artificially hatch the eggs :encouragement:

      Finally set up the 30L Shrimp Tank

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      Pure Red Line (PRL) Shrimps Western Australia seller

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.

      Is this garden hose end alloy pipe safe to use for aquarium piping?

      By Subtlefly · Posted

      Yes it’s super accurate to position where I want now and stay there- I am satisfied.  All the fish and shrimpers are doing excellent! Coming up on 4 years running!

      You must be pleased with that, it looks better and is much more robust and less likely to damage or leaks! The tank looks very natural now it has been running for a time. I see the ember tetras, how are the blue shrimp doing, I see a few? The cat and dog look very content and unimpressed, lol.
