Just two suggestions ....

1. Tiger & Variants...should we change it to Tiger & Tibee's ? Reason - helps our members recognise the term Tibee's

2. Add a new section - Taiwan Bee (TB) & Mishling ? Reason - more members are getting into the TB scene

I think they should all be subsections within the tiger forum.

In saying that i think that:

Tiger x Bee Shrimp = Tibee

Tiger x Mishling = Tibee Mishling.

Not sure, but presumed that internationally Tiger x Mishling is still regarded as a Tibee ? Maybe create a new term "TM" (Tibee Mishling ?) Not sure whether there's a need to though, as Tibee & mishling's are just a "means to an end" ?

:) Yeah I hear you. I also think having separated sections or subforums on different shrimp help find the info you after quicker and all in one place. That is a jolly good idea tibee sure!

Yes, Tiger x CRS is a Tibee, and I would consider a Tiger x Mishling a Tibee too.

And a Tibee x anything is a. f2?????

Tibee x anything = Mongrel...LOL. Equivalent to a Mishling x anything ....don't think there's any classification for it ? ATM, Tibee crosses are used as a means towards Pinto/Variations etc......The same path of TB's where we use mishligns to create more TB's, is a different path we take Tigers, as the tibee's are used not to great more tiger's, but to create variation's like pinto's etc....So the Tiger's classification or lack thereof is because of that.

So who's confused ? LOL

BTW....these are all just my thoughts and research I have done. In comparison to the international scene, we are way behind understanding the geno, pheno, %...etc, so please DON'T take what I say as fact, it's ONLY my opinion.

I have been proven wrong. But later I found out I was right...LOL

      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.
