The bag is almost empty. I can say that this is for sure one of their favourite foods.

I keep natives. I cull based on colour.

This reminded me of my old days when I was a Project Manager. We love to tell our client that "You can't make a baby in a month by getting 9 woman pregnant". LOL!!!

I'd like people to share what their personal favourite neo variety is. New or old, regardless of whether you have kept them before or not.I'm going to start it off - Orange is my favourite, both the old sunkist and the new orange rili as seen at the inaugural aussie shrimp comp in melbourne this year. olve n peace will

I love blue body carbon rilli's. I've got some berried girls at the moment and hoping for lots of blue!

Yeah he looks a bit like that but slimmer and lighter. Ill try to get a photo of him, he's not keen on the bright aquarium lights so I leave them off for him. He just has the natural light in the kitchen or the ceiling lights in the evening. He runs and hides when the aquarium light goes on so I just leave it off as he's much happier and sits out on his driftwood then. Ill see if I can get enough natural light to take a good photo of him and post on here. I did find this photo of a perfect moult of his though :) Oh, just found this really rubbish one of him, you can just see him under the wood.

Correcting mosy's spelling... Crypt balansae, or more precisely, Cryptocoryne crispatula var. balansae Nicely grown too

Carbon rilis are my fav by far :)

I just did some few days ago, just adding 2 tea spoons ofAstaxanthin and reducing Chlorella from 3 to 2 teaspoons. Other than that, all original recipe. Just drop some in the tank: 4 minutes after: Happy shrimps ;) I cut the food in small squares and stored it in the freezer . I have no deshydartor, but I wonder if I can let it dry in the sun for a full day and then store it in the freezer?

Was showing off my tanks to @kizshrimp today and he found one of my stranger pets growing on the glass of my C. typus grow out tank. A freshwater colonial bryozoan.

I want to get a nice new Rack.

..so what about a freshwater leech that exclusively eats snails. Helobdella papillornata. See last paragraph: http://static-content.springer.com/lookinside/art%3A10.1023%2FA%3A1003543314841/001.png. Gyraulus (mentioned in the paper) is a lot like the "mini ramshorn" that plagues many people. Edit: I suspect they will be a cold water species that may not tolerate the temps many of us have our tanks at.... but I really want to try to find them now.
