I've known honcho for a while now, and as a person and hobbyist, he's absolutely fantastic. There to assist others, and a true hobbyist. These episodes do happen, and Honcho, thank you for sharing your grief, as it will no doubt remind all of us on the dangers and cautions we need to take.

Once you've reset your tank ! I've got a pair of BB and a bunch of mishling's to get your TB program back on track ! No doubt there are many other members here that would assist too.

Chin up, make the grieving process short, and GET BACK to it mate !

Oh dear, such a shame to loose those shrimp.

I am testing some of that peroxide at the moment, but I have the moss out of the tank in it's own container of water.

Quik update

Thanx BB for ur kind gesture and thanx to the person that offered me some help with plants n stuff via pm today n also big thanx to jp07 for a long chat and laugh today, it was what i needed..!

Its been a loong looong day ..

ive totally stripped my tank this arvo and started it fresh again with new soil, now i gotta wait until it cycles ..

Whilst i was redoing the tank the rest of the tb's and mischlings that i thought may pull through have pretty much all died or are in the process of dying slowly..

Including a BB pair 5 or so black pandas and about 6 fem mischlings.. even the rest of my cherries finally gave in..

My tank has seen better days... but at the same time ive refreshed it and now its time for a new start..I dont think i could have done this so quick if i didnt have the support from all you fellow skf shrimpers...

Cheers SKF.....!

      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.
