Whew That was a close one, I woke up Tuesday morning at Bobs place to find all the doors closed and my host missing( I believe that there was some talk of a ransom) so panic stations. It turns out that Bob had left for work early and his good wife Linda was there to drive me to the station. So after a long, long train ride (31hrs) I am back on my boat.

The BBQ is still on you can start to arrive anytime after 10 am . There has been a slight alteration to plans ,and I am sorry to tell you that we will not be able to take the boat out cruising on the day, three factors are to be considered Weather, forecast rain and wind, one of my boats motors is playing up it is hard to start and refuses to keep running, and thirdly Dean will not be able to make it until around 12 midday. I know we are all keen to meet our man personally so I don't think you will mind having the BBQ at the jetty.

Bring your own food and drink ( I will have some sausages on hand as a stand by)and anything else you would like Don't get dressed up this is a total casual affair girls, a plate with salad or something like that would be nice guys the usual. Looking forward to you all being here.. please let me know how many still intend to come!!!!

The address is Pier L Hope Harbour Marina John Lund Drive Hope Island my mobile 0418731345 call me when you reach John Lund drive and I will give you directions from there.

any other details required please pm me

      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.

      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.

      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.
