Hi everyone,

Im glad to be here, glad to be able to learn from all the experts :)

Ive got a 3 ft tank with A/s/ss/SSS managed to breed them but really just let them do their thing, sometimes I just find one or 2 dead and it's all a mystery lol

Anyways hope to learn more in the future, I'm not on much cos I'm in a new area and have no Internet :(

Cheers

Hey triggs,

Yeh I've lost a few mosura SSS since beginning, they managed to breed but from the 15 I had probably only have 10 left, I decided to get some more and grabbed a few a s grades off ace on the weekend... Im seeing alot of no entry hino babies, and have probably 3 SSS babies, but no idea who's breeding with who lol, I wanna let the colony mature before I start picking them out to select breed :)

Started out as wanting to see if I could breed SSS grade and since I have now I'm happy to have a happy colony :)

      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.
