I'm over the moon with them and now there are more!

I spotted a little tiny CRS type shrimplet yesterday that could only be from Trancy's first belly full of berrys. Also Mrs Brownnose is due in about 9 days or so and 1 of our new girls is recently berryed too! So happy and excited about it all.

Seems our Mischy population is starting to grow and our RCS are starting to take over the tank and push the Mischys away from the food, I decided to give away most of our fish so I can setup the 80cm for our RCS, 1xCranky Male Bristlenose and Rasbora Maculattas. I just couldn't bring myself to find new homes for any of our RCS lol

Pmsl sure does Fishmosy, and there's only 1 cure 'more tanks' lol.

But with a partner like mine it's almost impossible to feed the addiction, for now. Will be a different story once our little girl starts school and I can go back to work though. I'll be earning a wage again then so he's excuse of 'I'm the one that works to earn any money we have so only I get a say in how it's spent' will fly out the window. Boy do I have plans lol (rubbing my hands together cackling with glee at thought). I've pinpointed every area in the house that will fit and benefit from the addition of another tank. So 2016 is going to be an awesome year, both our kids will be in school, I can go back to vet nursing and finish my studies to become not just an xperiencd vet nurse but a qualified vet nurse as well, I can buy more tanks and shrimp and I can get another Rottweiler that will hopefully teach our Staffy a thing or 2 lol.

I know the feeling. Had to cut back on the number of tanks I had (roughly 20) to just 5 as I got close to finishing my PhD. Now I'm almost done, its not long until I can get them filled up again.

I've managed to talk OH into letting me build a rack that has the sump in cupboard on the bottom, then 3 x 2ft divided tanks on top so I can start seperating the panda, tibee, kk or RR, snow white shrimplets that are now popping up in the tank. But after I finally managed to draw up some designs and worked out the measurements I realized a 4 tier rack just wasn't very maintenance/viewer friendly. So I've changed the plans a little to a cupboard with a sump with 2x2ft divided tanks on that then another shelf with 2 x 2ft divided tanks. He doesn't know yet, and won't know until I've finished it and set it all up, that way he has no chance of stopping me from doing it. Luckily work has him away from home for days to weeks at a time so I can set it up without him knowing lol

      I have just done the planned weekly maintenance and 10% water change and everything 'seems' to be going very well, I saw 12 blue and 9 panda shrimps so am very happy about that as there are always some hiding (and they are small) so there must be more than that at this point. Early days yet (especially with the off parameters) with the blues only been in the tank for a week and the pandas for 2 weeks. Not seen any dead ones yet and the shrimp seem happy enough and beautiful colour and pattern, all small so must be young! Parameters were TDS 159, GH 7-8, KH 1-2, PH 7 yesterday so still a bit off the usual ideal! Hopefully these figures come down slowly in time, I used pure RO water for the water change so Tds should drop 10. I will get a different PH test kit with a narrower range/increments as the one I have measures in .5 increments over a wide range which is probably a bit much. I bought these shrimp because the sellers parameters (PH 6.8) were the closest to mine so hopefully it will work out long term. I changed my zerowater filter as well, as the old one was measuring TDS 6 so passed its best. I will definitely overnight drip acclimate shrimp in the future, not that I plan any more in the forseeable future. I will add/edit photo when available, hopefully later today.

      All done now, I drip acclimated 11 blue bolts and 6 blue steel overnight and they are now in the tank so now is just wait and see if this works. 28 shrimps have now been put in and I have yet to SEE a dead one so fingers crossed! A couple of pictures of some below; I don't plan on buying any more shrimp so plan this to be a blue shrimp tank, though if it doesn't work out I have seen some female bettas I would like, but hopefully the shrimps will work out. The water parameters are still the same as before, so a bit off! I need to sort out what foods and shrimp stuff I have in the drawers and cupboard tomorrow as it's been a while, hopefully I find a shrimp lolly so I can give them one/part of those tomorrow, and it may bring as many of the shrimps out as possible.  Fingers crossed everyone...........
