I never liked em either until I seem them in person

they are a stunning plant

best looking plant for the tank if u ask me

I especially like it because they are rare and need little trimming so less hands in the tank

I love rare and expensive things!

The ones ive seen here in Vietnam were beautiful. They were big plants full of colour- not little cuttings that we see in Australia

Only problem is the camera can not capture the metallic rainbow that will appear on the new leaf. That Titan 1 has a strong metallic rainbow when the new leaf Strarts to form.

+1 from me, they are beautiful but shrimp move around & I like watching things that move around(even if it is very slowly sometimes) :victorious:

Beautiful Bucs mate! Nice and healthy and no algae - not easy to keep the algae off.

I am an aquascaper (wannabe :) ) first and a shrimp keeper second. For me, the fascination with Bucs is in their aquascaping potential as well as their beauty. There is nothing like having beautiful shrimp in a beautiful aquascape imo. Also a nice, mature cluster of bucs grown on rock or wood - a beautiful sight.

Buce seem to be a magnet for algae but to remove the algae on Buces is probably one of the easiest plant to do. They are one of the strongest plant to keep, a good spot dose of hydrogen peroxide will clean any Buces but unless you change your set up or routine , the algae will come back. Usually no ferts in shrimp tank, then there's no algae .

      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.
