Fortunately with my work/schedule, it allows me to watch over my tanks with an eagle eye... the design of the racks/system, and the setup is critical, I over plan and ensure I invest my $ on them....P

110kg of Benibatchi! You should be able to get a pallet for wholesale price ;) haha

Actually a good point.. I know that we have sellers of these products on here. On another forum I'm on people organise bulk buys through site sponsors all the time... For example if you get a pallet load maybe 40 bags there is a good price reduction usually a single delivery address and then it gets distributed from there. Either picked up from that address or buyers pay the freight themselves.

The list might start like this

Inverted - 7 bags

just so you guys know, a pallet is 100 bags & to make it worth while everyone would have to be in the same area or you have the same problem of shipping individual bags everywhere. :thumbsu:

Racks going great, although they're both due for new substrate, as the buffers worn out :-( Been adding minerals, fluvial acids etc just to keep the shrimps appeased. Just noticed that the demand to constantly boost up my GH is getting more frequent. Approx. 22 bags of Benibachi soils required  :startle:  :startle:  :startle:

nearly a year on, hows the racks going, if your still around....:huh-::huh-:

Racks all going awesome. Definitely important spending the time, effort and design right at the start of these projects

      Good video by Chris Lukhaup!

      By beanbag · Posted

      One interesting thing he mentioned was "Bacteria pressure", which I guess just means number of bacteria around.  Yet I see all these other videos from shrimpkeepers bragging about how much bacteria their filtering system holds. Also interesting is no mention of using anti-biotics to treat bacterial infection.  I think that has fallen out of favor recently.

      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.
