Hey guys im new to shrimp, just in the process of setting up my first shrimp only tank which is a 150litre planted setup that i plan on putting yellow cherries in "just gotta find some"...

Besides that ive been keeping fish for maybe 16+years and have worked in aquarium stores for 11 years of that "my whole working life" lol

Ive kept a lil bit of everything from Marine, planted, NANO's, community and Cichlid setups...

At the moment besides the 150litre im setting up for the shrimp and the aquarium section at work ive got myself a 1000l IBC grown out tank with LF albino and LF common bristlenose fry, Pingu guppies and red cherries in it, i also have 2 6 footers with all my adult breeding bristlenose varieties... also in the process of setting up a 750 litre marine reef aquarium in then living room, just gotta find enough cash to finish the idea LOL..

looking forward to learning and sharing on the site

Jase

Welcome to SKF buddy.

I'm sure you will find some Yellow Cherries from someone here. The premium members have access to the forums "Buy/Sell/Swap" Section which is only $12.50 a year subscription.

Take it from me man, You'll make the $12.50 back in savings within a purchase or two. Some of the prices and quality I've seen here for sale are the best I've seen by far.

It's also a very good way to thank the forum owner for spending so much of his time and efforts into setting up such a wonderful place for us all to come to chat, share, learn and well show off :D

Anyways I don't mean to sound like a salesman I just want to share with everyone how much it's worth the premium membership not only personally for the savings but to keep such a wonderful place running that we can all enjoy!

      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.
