I felt like a kid at CRS-mas! Yesterday new yellows (thanks Gbang - they're too small to photograph though :) ) and today my first CBS and blue something-or-other shrimp! Love them all!

I'm 15 k from the GPO in Adelaide so you would think it wasn't a problem, When I queried it a while ago they said 2 things if it's late then next time you can have free delivery or pay more to guarantee next day delivery - funny I thought that's what I had paid more LOl. Never mind it will get here!

Lol, I know what you mean, pay extra for next day delivery but pay more extra for guaranteed next day delivery, doesn't make sense :encouragement:

I apparently bought the last pack of Platinum Post satchets in WA yesterday ? Aust Posts has changed the Express/Plat Post system effective immediately, although they'll still honour the 24 hrs guarantee for existing Plat Post sachets. The reason I was given was that they were having issues with 24 hour guaranteed delivery, so rather then fix and resolve the issue, they've made it easier for themselves ! So no more Plat Post once the satchets run out. Pttthhhh !

Send the shrimp via the US, they seem to send things 10x faster.

Aus post need some competition besides courier companies. They're so slow. :(

      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.
