So wanted to see if anyone would be interested in a BBQ catch up, give us an excuse to eat awesome food have a cider or 3 and share our passion for shrimp. Now I was thinking of having it at a park or beachside area but am open to ideas.

Anyway it's an idea, noticed we don't have any shrimp clubs or meet up things to get to know the people we share our hobby with face to face.

Cheers,

Josh

We will be in on the BBQ, depending on the amount of people and a little hand for some fuel we can have it on my boat if you like a day cruise around the broadwater in nice weather would go down great

Fuel won't be that much, (though my old 75 hp Merks are a bit thirsty) still whatever people want to donate to the cause will be welcome.

The only small problem is that I have to slip the boat in the next couple of weeks and I am going up to see Bob from the 21st March to the 26th that leaves around Easter and there after, which will be OK by us

Awesome Dean, love to put a face to a name :applause: Don't worry about sea sickness, Travacalm is good & there's also another on that is better but I can't remember the name, I'll let you know when I do :encouragement: Also, you should be ok on the Broadwater, it's just like a river, not much swell or rocking :encouragement:

      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.
